Tower Bridge

It took us about 4 years in the NYC area to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. So, we decided to not wait that long and check out the Tower Bridge.

We walked across the bridge over the Thames and back again.

One thing for sure, it was a much shorter walk than it was over the Brooklyn Bridge. So, after we’d been across and back, the kids still wanted more. There just so happened to be an exposition going on up inside the bridge so we went for it. It was great to learn why and how the bridge was built. It took 8 years to build and during the construction only 10 people were killed. Amazing for such a feat, especially back then.

The view from up top was amazing as well.

As soon as the holidays are over and we have to get back to school work, we’ll be aching to get out and site-see. So glad we’ve had this chance to dive into London with Chris this last little while.
