Hey all!! il prob be brief cos once again the cost of internet here is DISGRACEFUL and im already super broke. Yesterday I went on a tour through the English country side. The inspiration for choosing it was that i wanted to see stonehenge so i thought id see a couple other significant things while i was at it. It was all pleasantly priced at a mere £65 (Student rate!!) thats like $170AU... sob.
anyway the trip was pretty damn good so thats all that counts! Only thing of concern is that I was one of like 4 under 30s lol but ah well, was easy to meet them. One being a 25 year old aussie guy, and the others were two 19 year old canadian girls. I LOVE canadian accents!!! 😉 First part was to Windsor Castle. This is apparently the oldest occupied castle in the world. It was pretty awesome, the castle had a really ancient feel about it, felt like being back in the 12th century of its construction. Didnt get to meet the queen, but ah well. there was a chance to get up close and personal with another one of those guards. Spent a fair while there, maybe 2 hours, and bought an arsenal scarf outside for a decently priced £3.50. Anyway thats enough for this part 😊

Random Shot
some part of Windsor castle. i just felt that shot was neccesary. theres plenty more like it of everywhere, but il just show you all when i get home :)

The front door

The Keep
inside the walls, the keep. you can only imagine how hard it would have been for an army to storm a castle like this.
