a: so remember in those fairy tales our parents (or Walt Disney) used to read us when we were young with the big castles and kings and queens etc etc? well today- I saw a REAL CASTLE in which lives a REAL QUEEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!! how crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Insane really, because this castle wasn’t even just a castle- it was a whole fortress! With a moat and walls and beautiful beautiful big buildings- huge ! wow. Today we went to Windsor Castle, the longest and oldest inhabited castle in the world! Not in fairy tales! The pictures don’t do it justice, and we weren’t allowed to take pictures inside-which was truly gorgeous. Gold everywhere! Gold everything! Huge paintings and rooms just full of paintings and everyroom was a painting itself! I really don’t kknow how people built this stuff! I don’t know how it’s humanly possible! Kinda like those pyramids…. Anyways, we went on a very very long audio tour through the billions of rooms in just part of the castle, then walked around Windsor (city) a bit.
b: So Windsor Castle was spectacular! It was even more grand then I could ever imagine! The fairy tales certainly don’t do it justice even those mental pictures don’t seem real! Especially the real life painting of Miss Elizabeth I when she was thirteen, I have a light…well…large obsession with The Tudor Family but most particularly Elizabeth the first who I could go on about for ageeees!!! She truly is my hero!!
a: Then we met up with the sister of the man whose house we’re staying in. she was soooooooo nice and cool! And had a sweet accent! We got icecream =) mmmmmmm I love icecream. Okay so then we walked more saw the beautiful guest entrance to the castle … wowowoow… then had to take the long train ride back home. Apparently there was a big rugby game today in one of the towns that the train stops through… so on our way back when we got to that stop a TON of people got on the train… a ton of drunk people! And a drunk Scottish man in a kilt who I’m pretty sure wasn’t wearing anything under that judging by the look on the girl’s face who was standing next to him and turned around and covered her eyes! I believe she said something along the lines of “did you get an eye-full too?!” but it was more English and in a thick accent! But anyways this big group of drunk guys were singing/yelling tons of songs- including queen’s bohemian rhapsody ! it was toooooo funny! Our free entertainment for the evening ! hehe! b: Oh my goodness! Drunkin Scottsman, poor girl sitting across from him! The guy he fancied talking to had a huge gash on his forehead to drunk to understand looked like he had had a hell of a night. Though the Londoners were the ones singing all the radical songs we found out later that the Scottish were who won the rugby game! But overall today was ahmazing! It just feels so unreal!!
