Just right click on the top of a window and choose Customize Toolbar (or choose View > Customize Toolbar) and drag the Annotate bubble into the toolbar and you will now have rectangles, circle, arrows and text tools to annotate an image:

If you notice there are a lot of other tools in there as well like crop and rotate. .
