Row houses in London are a must, as the country is an island nation and land is a premium in London.

I took this picture from high atop St. Paul's Cathedral. Note the Eye of London in the background.

Dad poses in front of the Tower of London, which is the home of the Crown Jewels. You could spend hours in this palace
complex, which is home of several museums. I really enjoyed the exhibit of the old armor the knight's would wear (see below).
The Crown Jewels are pretty well secured, but are dazzling to the eye.

In Indiana, there is only one Knight (Bobby, of course). But in England, there are a lot of Knights as they title is
still used by the Queen. I really liked this piece of Armor for one reason: I am sure Johnny Bench would have loved to use
a protective cup like this one!

The Eye of London is a new landmark in London, but the views from this ferris wheel-type ride are fantastic.
