Yes. I do realised the start of this article is quite a contrast to the last one I posted. This last of the Tower of London Trilogy, contains the bits and pieces of the rest of the castle. To start off lightly, let's take a look at who London Paddington found during our trip here.
是的!這篇跟上篇比起來實在是差很多!在這篇倫敦塔三部曲的最後一篇裡包含的就是剩餘的部分囉!其實沒有什麼特定的主題,也有點雜。不過首先,先來看看倫敦熊在這裡遇到了誰!
The authentic Paddington Bear! 正港的伯靈頓熊耶!
'I'm not for sale!' 『我是非賣品喔!』
Okay, time to see the rest of the place.
接下來就看這個位於倫敦市中心的城堡,到底還有什麼可觀的囉!

It's quite a magnificent place... if you don't think about how many had lost their freedom and/or heads here... Or may be that adds to its magnificence??
如果不去想說有多少人在這失去的自由(甚至他們的頭)其實這地方真的很壯觀啊!(還是因為這樣所以更壯觀!?)
Another view of the Tower Bridge 又見塔橋
Random shot... 隨拍

Shot of the soldier from afar. 只好從遠處拍攝
How the gates are opened. 開門用的
Sir Walter Raleigh was kept here. Raleigh was an explorer (pirate), spy, and also a poet. If you'll recall from the movie 'Elizabeth', he was sent to the tower for marrying on of Queen Elizabeth's lady-in-waiting without her permission.
雷利當時就被關在這。他在當時是個冒險家(海盜),間諜,但也是個詩人。如果看過電影『伊莉莎白』的話或許你會記得:他被關起來是因為他未經過女王的同意就私下跟女王的侍女結婚。
Seemed like a very cosy place to be imprisoned in...
看起來是個頗舒適的牢房啊!

Meals in prison. 當時的牢飯
Bloody Towers are for traitors 血腥塔是留給叛徒的
I made the right decision in forfeiting The Tower in 2009. I wouldn't have had enough time to really enjoy it. I arrived in the morning, shortly before noon (or possibly around noon), and didn't finish touring around the place till five in the early evening! By then, I was completely worn out, and needed to recharge...
我覺得2009年放棄這裡是對的決定!當時我不可能會有足夠的時間看完全部!我早上(接近中午)還是中午左右到的,一直到五點左右才參觀完!到了此時,我已經快虛脫了!所以就來點充電的...
Oversized macaroon by the Tower! 超大macaroon!
Remains of London Wall 倫敦城牆的遺跡
Meeting Caesar on the way to the tube 回去搭地鐵時遇見羅馬大帝
Taking a closer look 再靠近一點看...
The End.
全文完。
天仙念:用好一點的相機,結果就是很難拍出不好看的... 尤其是這麼殺底片的地方,搞的三篇還差點寫不完。但過程中已經被我忍痛刪掉很多了呢!
