Took the Hop-on bus out to the Tower of London. What an incredible experience that place is! We weren't allowed to take pics of the Crown Jewels (a collection of 23,578 jewels which have been on display at the Tower since the 17th century) but WOW! Talk about jaw droppingly beautiful!

Memorial marking the general spot where Anne Boleyn and others lost their heads.
Later, went to a pub down the street from our hotel called the Zetland Arms. Sign on the building said it was once owned by Charlie Chaplin's brother. Stayed for a few beer and ended up ordering munchies to make a meal of it. Pubs here are very accommodating to smokers. You can take your drink outside with you, there are usually either a couple of small chairs with a table or ledges to put your drink on. Some even have heaters overhead that you can turn on.
