We disembarked at the Tower of London, and because it is super money to get in, and we didn't really have time to visit all the exciting things within the tower, I made Mike let me visit just inside the gates so I could have a photo with a Beefeater. They are all ex military men (and one woman) who's job are to be the ceremonial guardians of the Tower of London's prisoners (which there aren't any of anymore) and of the Crown Jewels. I had a nice chat with the bloke, who said he came from Devon, while Mike snapped this photo.
