London, June 27th

I traveled to London from Cambridge, and it's hard to wrap my head around the close proximity of the towns in Europe. 

While in London, I was able to see the HMS Belfast. The ship's history is rich--it went to the Arctic to help the Russians in the second world war, and it also fought in Korea. 

Also...the Tower of London. Did you know that SIr Thomas More was held there? As someone who took a stand against abuse of power in his day, I think it's interesting to try to understand human actions within the context of their history and see how choices can have powerful implications.
