^amazing video of the coronation of queen elizabeth II. the crown jewels are at the tower of london; they're pretty ridiculous.

my very favorite part of the tower of london was seeing the words and names carved into the walls of prison cells. one man, thomas wyllinger, about whom i find nothing on the internet, wrote in 1573: 'my heart is yours till death,' and carved a heart and skeleton and such; the picture did not come out well.
