Tower Bridge London

Had a family ticket for under £30. The lift ride up is a tight squeeze. The tour was well signposted. The tour design made the most of the utilitarian building built for work only. There was a bridge exhibition. The glass walk ways above the bridge looking onto the street below was scary but showed off the wonder of the scale of the design. Good photos of East & West London from camera slots on walkways 150m above Thames River. We couldn't quite understand how the steam engine lifted the bridge bollards but there in lies the mystery of the engineering feat. Must do for young teens doing an engineering degree.
