A couple weeks ago on a very rainy and cold night, I went to see the Ceremony of the Keys at the Tower of London. Basically it's the ceremony where the guards lock up the tower and it's been happening every single night, on time, for 700 YEARS. Wow! Except one night... during WWII... when a bomb dropped nearby... well... they were ten minutes late... tsk tsk... and they wrote a formal apology to the king. Ha, ha. Just a neat little piece of history to witness!
