We were all impressed with this "Jewelled Sword of Offering." Not shown in this picture is the sheath, which is likewise encrusted with diamonds and emeralds. Our son thinks he needs one of these for his room!
This photo shows the huge diamond inset in the "Sovereign's Sceptre" from 1661. Of course it was even more impressive in real life than it appears in this photo--the photo isn't able to convey how large this diamond really is.
These crowns belonged to Queen Mary in 1685. The display at the Tower of London included numerous crowns--it was hard to pick a favorite! How
does the Queen decide which one to wear?
This is the Russian water-park we visited in southern Poland. This is the best picture I was able to get from the brochure. There were many different slides, mineral spas, saunas, wave pools and play pools.
