Here’s a little recap of our trip last week to Kent Police Open Day. The children got to sit in a police car, sounds the sirens, watch a police dog show and they even went inside a real police cell. Lots of children came away with a dream of one day being a police officer.

Today we took a train into London and went to visit The Tower of London.
We saw the Torture Chambers and the Armoury section amongst many other attractions.
Unfortunately, there was an hour wait to see the Crown Jewels, so we were unable to see them this time. @TowerOfLondon
