Shearwater is a classic Newport-style schooner yacht, only recently recognized as a national landmark in 2009. The vessel was built by Rice Brother Corporation in East Boothbay, Maine, back in a time when yachting was a rare combination of elegance and adventure; Rice Bros. were well known for building luxury pleasure yachts and produced some 4,000 hulls over a period of 64 years. The keel was laid down on January 4, 1929 and a news clip from the Boothbay Register reflects alongside a photograph "Tyler Hodgon at the old Tide Mill is getting out timbers for the schooner to be built at Rice’s. Vessel to be built of native white oak." Traditionally built from hand-hewn native white oak, she was the last boat to be constructed at that yard - likely due to the ensuing Great Depression brought on by the Stock Market Crash that occurred later that autumn. East Boothbay was a small coastal town with shipbuilding being its only industry. About 40 workmen were employed for the construction of SHEARWATER. Her designer Theodore Donald Wells was born in Hudson Falls, N Y on October 22, 1875. He was a naval architect and marine engineer, a member of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers and also the Institute of Naval Architects London. His education included post-graduate work at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. He began his career as a member of the firm Herreshoff and Wells, N. Y. City in 1902. Working with Herreshoff no doubt had an influence on his designs, which bear similarities to many of the famous Herreshoff designed yachts of that time. From 1903 to 1907 he worked for Wintringham and Wells and then began practicing his profession under his own name. Mr. Wells joined the Navy Department in March 1917 and became Superintending Constructor of the Baltimore District U. S. N. Notable yachts designed and constructed under his supervision are "Viking" a 272 foot steel motor yacht built for George F. Baker in 1929 by Newport News and "Karina" a three masted schooner built for Robert E. Tod in 1932 by Staten Island Shipbuilding. Mr. Tod was a well-known offshore yachtsman as was his former yacht ‘Thistle", which competed in the Emperors Cup ocean race. SHEARWATER was launched on May 4, 1929 and photographs in the Boothbay Register reflect her graceful and elegant lines. Her first Captain, Leon Esterbrook of Edgarton, MA, arrived to take charge of the fitting out. Her owner Charles E Dunlap was a member of the Seawanhaka Corinthian Yacht Club, Oyster Bay, NY and this became SHEARWATER’s first homeport after her completion in late September 1929. It was there in Oyster Bay that she first started to thrill those who sailed in luxury aboard her and those who were privileged to crew her on race day. Since her launching and documentation in Lloyd’s Register of American Yachts in 1929, she has had a colorful history and has been carefully maintained and restored to standards that few contemporary vessels are able to match and is truly a piece of American Maritime History. On November 7, 1942 SHEARWATER was requisitioned by the War Shipping Administration and became a member of The United States Coast Guard’s Coastal Picket Patrol during World War Two. She was painted gray and bore the numbers CG67004. Based at Little Creek, Virginia she patrolled the waters east of the Chesapeake Bay entrance and south towards Cape Hatteras. Her skipper during that period reflected on how they used their free time while out on submarine patrol to race against other yachts and in his own words "sailed in tandem with the schooner Lord Jim, racing in and out of port, up and down the east coast and winning." She was designed and built as a gaff rigged schooner but during this period was changed to a Marconi rig. She carries over 2,550 square feet while under full sail. A true veteran world cruiser, she first transited the Panama Canal in July 1946 and in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s completed a two and a half-year global circumnavigation. In December 1971 Mrs. John B. Thayer of Rosemont, wife of a former trustee and treasurer, donated SHEARWATER to the University of Pennsylvania’s Institute of Environmental Medicine. She was used by the university as a laboratory for research on physiological responses to the stresses of living and working underwater. Captained by James Shearson, she was fitted with compressors, generators, monitoring instruments and a small decompression chamber. She has participated in many Ancient Mariner and Classic yacht races in U S waters as well as racing in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand while on her circumnavigation in the early 1980’s. It is rumored she was once dismasted in the famous Newport to Bermuda race. She was last raced by the current owners in San Diego in May 1995 in the American Schooner Cup and finished second overall. She entered the yacht charter industry in 1966 whilst on the West Coast sailing to the Channel Islands and was again used to generate income to keep her shipshape while owned by the University of Pennsylvania. During the chartering industry’s infancy in the Caribbean, SHEARWATER was known as the " Queen of the Fleet". Today she continues this tradition offering the most unique sailing experience and has passed rigid Coast Guard inspections and can carry up to 49 passengers. We welcome you to join us for an excellent opportunity to experience the ambiance of a vintage sailing vessel while delighting in the splendors of The Manhattan sky-line, the Statue of Liberty or the beauty of the oceans beyond.

Prince & Patron: To mark the 70th birthday of His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales this year, visitors to the Summer Opening of the State Rooms at Buckingham Palace will enjoy a special display featuring a number of works of art personally selected by His Royal Highness The Garden Described as a 'walled oasis in the middle of London', the Palace's garden is home to thirty different species of bird and more than 350 different wild flowers, some extremely rare. Visitors end their tour with a walk along the south side of the garden, with splendid views of the west front of the Palace and the famous lake.

One of the finest working stables in existence, the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace provides a unique insight into the department of the Royal Household that provides transport by road for The Queen and other members of the Royal Family.  The Carriage Horses During your visit to the Mews, you will see some of The Queen’s horses that draw the coaches and carriages in the Mews. The Cleveland Bays are used to escort newly appointed High Commissioners and Ambassadors to their audience with The Queen, when they present their formal credentials from their country’s Head of State. You may also see the famous Windsor Greys, so called because they were kept at Windsor during the reign of Queen Victoria and drew the private carriages of the royal family. They are at least 16.1 hands (1.65 metres) high and are chosen for their steady temperament and stamina. Coaches & Livery The Royal Mews houses the royal collection of historic carriages and coaches, which you may see in use during your visit. Among the vehicles on display are the Irish State Coach, in which The Queen travels to the State Opening of Parliament, and the Australian State Coach, which combines traditional craftsmanship with 20th-century technology to provide heating and remote-controlled windows. The most dazzling vehicle of all is the Gold State Coach, which was built for George III in 1762.  Weighing almost four tonnes and requiring eight horses to pull it, it has carried every monarch to their coronation since 1821. Visitors to the Royal Mews can also see some of the fine livery worn by The Queen’s coachmen. Apart from a few small details, it remains much the same as it was in Victorian times.  Remarkably, some of the tailors used for production of liveries today are the same companies employed during the reign of George III in the 18th century. Multimedia guide is included in the admission price and is available in the following languages:English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Russian

SEA LIFE London Aquarium El Acuario SEA LIFE Londres es el hogar de la mayor colección de vida marina global de Europa y la joya de la corona de los 28 Acuarios SEA LIFE en el Reino Unido y Europa. Situado en el corazón de Londres, la experiencia lleva a los visitantes en un viaje inmersivo e interactivo a través de la Cinta Transportadora Oceánica. La misteriosa experiencia, repartida en tres plantas, empieza con un viaje submarino hacia las profundidades del Océano Atlántico. A lo largo del viaje, una pasarela en el impresionante túnel de cristal les ofrece a los visitantes una inolvidable experiencia de adentrarse bajo un Océano Tropical. Hay muchas formas de interacción por el camino, desde alimentar las rayas y ver muestras submarinas hasta las zonas de descubrimiento y de experimentación táctil. Otras estrellas de este espectáculo son las tortugas verdes, los caballitos de mar, los pulpos, los tiburones cebra y el siempre popular pez payaso. Pero el verdadero espectáculo empieza cuando los visitantes completan su viaje en la zona más profunda y oscura del Océano Pacífico - pasee por el lado más salvaje y observe 10 especies de tiburones nadar tan sólo unos centímetros por encima de usted en una plataforma de cristal suspendida. Así como permitir que millones de personas descubran la maravillas del mundo marino, la red SEA LIFE también realiza una importante función de conservación y ayudando a salvaguardar los océanos para el futuro. El Acuario SEA LIFE London también es un centro puntero en gestión, conservación y preservación del medio marino del Reino Unido. ¡Los cocodrilos establecen su residencia en el Acuario SEA LIFE Londres! Cocodrilos, Pirañas, una familia de Ranas Punta de Flecha y una gran cantidad de exóticas criaturas acuáticas establecerán su residencia en el espacio completamente nuevo del Acuario SEA LIFE Londres  "Selvas del Mundo" en Pascua. Selvas del Mundo sustituirá completamente la anterior zona selvática y dará una instantánea de los vulnerables ecosistemas de Malaysia, el Oeste de África o el Sur de América. Los visitantes se encontrarán con algunas de las criaturas más temidas y famosas de las selvas en este inmersivo viaje a través de tres continentes. Un par de Cocodrilos Enanos Africanos de casi 2 metros en un espacio especialmente habilitado para ellos que recrea su hábitat africano. La familia de Ranas Punta de Flecha, muy tóxicas, otorgará un caleidoscopio de colores al lugar. ¡Pero cuidado con la fascinante Rana Venenosa Dardo amarilla, es la más letal de todas ellas! Continuando con los pequeños pero mortales animales, el Acuario también tiene una de las colecciones más importantes de Europa de Pirañas, peces conocidos por su preferencia por la carne. Puente de la Torre Hace más de 100 años, los victorianos construyeron un puente que se ha convertido en uno de los monumentos más famosos de Londres. Se construyeron pasarelas en la planta superior para permitir que la gente cruzara el Támesis mientras se levantaba el puente para el paso de grandes barcos. En la actualidad, estas pasarelas se utilizan como lugar de observación, ofreciendo a los visitantes las vistas más espectaculares del skyline de Londres. Pasarelas y exposición: Los visitantes entran a la Exposición del Tower Bridge por la Torre Norte. Luego son trasladados en ascensor hasta la parte superior de la torre (47 metros sobre el Támesis) donde tienen la oportunidad única de ver la estructura de acero del puente des de su interior. Un cortometraje cuenta los orígenes e historia del puente y luego hay la posibilidad de contemplar vistas espectaculares desde ambas pasarelas cubiertas. Junto con vistas excepcionales del este de Londres, la pasarela cuenta con 20 reconocidos puentes que forman la popular exposición "Grandes puentes del mundo". En la pasarela este hay fantásticas vistas de los Docklands y desde la pasarela oeste se puede ver el nuevo edificio del ayuntamiento, la catedral de Saint Paul, la City, la Pool de Londres, el Big Ben y el London Eye en la distancia. Los kioscos interactivos y los paneles gráficos explican los detalles de las vistas a los visitantes, así como también ofrecen información sobre la historia y la construcción del puente. El material interactivo y los paneles gráficos están traducidos en siete idiomas y para el video también hay un audio en bucle para las personas con dificultades auditivas. En la Torre Sur hay otro video para ver antes de descender a las históricas salas de máquinas, que están incluidas en el precio de su entrada. Salas de máquinas victorianas: Estas ofrecen una interesante perspectiva de la ingeniería de finales del siglo XIX. Instaladas en la finalización del Tower Bridge en 1894, estos enormes motores impulsados ​​por carbón se usaron para alimentar los miles de elevadores basculantes del puente hasta 1976. Aunque los elevadores ahora son impulsados por la electricidad, las máquinas de vapor originales todavía se conservan en el lugar. En las salas de máquinas se ofrece a los visitantes la oportunidad de experimentar con modelos que muestran la tecnología que hay en el puente. También hay algunas fotografías increíbles del Tower Bridge a lo largo de su historia, incluida una imagen reveladora de la estructura de acero del puente antes de instalar el revestimiento de piedra.
