Tower Bridge

After spending a looong time touring the Tower of London - I then visited the Tower Bridge. It was amazing to learn of it's history and view the architecture close up.

The views were awesome! The pic below is of a unique building that the local in London refer to as "The Pickle Building"....however...it does seem a bit phallic to me.....

damn - can't seem to get me mind outta the gutt'r....maybe I was startin' to get homesick.....



To the right here is the view of the Tower of London from the top of the Tower Bridge....


This is the HMS Belfast docked to the South of the bridge...

The view up the River Thames ....

The end of the tour wraps up with viewing the engine rooms.....


but MY end of the tour of the Tower Bridge found me looking up one of the tours and getting a bit parched.....

found a local pub and made friends with the regulars!
