DPP 20: Time-Travelling Warriors

On our third day in London, our familial trio visited one of my very favourite places in the world: the Tower of London. We were treated to a tour by a beefeater, and enjoyed many displays: a mixture of old things left looking as ancient as possible, new things built and constructed to resemble the originals, and some interactive displays. This archer crouches in the middle of an interactive display rigged to recreate one of the great battles once fought around the Tower. Below his arrow are the homes of some beefeaters who work in the Tower and live, with their families, in homes built into these eight-metre-thick walls thousands of years ago. Above his arrow, the bustle of modern-day London can be seen.
