The Tower of London was a great day, the whole family loved it. There is soooo much to see and do at the Tower of London, like see the queens jewels, The Fusilier Museum and lots more. We also went to Hamleys the toy store which is just great for the kids (and me). We stayed over and also went to Legoland which is also great but I'd say for kids maybe 12 and under. Loved every minute of London and cant wait to go back.
