day 9

What a great way to end our trip! Today we headed to windsor castle, it started off rough since our 2 hour drive turned into three hours due to traffic and an emergency bathroom break but once we got there wow !! it was a beautiful place! We went to Buckingham Palace but Windsor Castle was so much better. 


Before we headed to the castle we found a carnival again, how lucky are we! So of course we had to walk around in there for a while get a few snacks then we headed to lunch. Lunch was at a greek place. Eating here is just so difficult, they expect you to have reservations and that’s just not how we work. We don’t even have a cell phone that can call anyone let alone know any restaurants to call. So we walked into the greek place and he said did you make a reservation we said no he said i can only seat you if you are all here and you can eat in 1 hour. We said okay, it’s weird though they think they are so busy and can’t seat people but there are always tables empty, it makes no sense. Lunch was delicious though, we had pita wraps and kabobs, yum !


Then we headed for the Palace, there was sooo many people. But it was still so pretty and so much history. We were able to get into the castle with a head set deal that told us about each place we were at. The grounds were amazing, we saw the state rooms, and the st george church. All of which were so cool, i loved it! They did not allow pictures inside, and i actually followed the rules this time because the guy was on the look out for cameras. So sorry the outside is all that was pictured. (failed blogger moment)



We spent some time in the gift shops, walking around, and of course drinking coke because it was hot today especially with all those people and no one here has AC. They don’t deal well with the heat here. 


We headed back to the cottage in hopes for a few hours to pack and gear up before we head home tomorrow. We stopped at a pub on the way home and man it was some good food. Everyone was very pleased with their dish. We made a quick stop at the Co-Op (grocery stop) to get some candy to take home and then headed back to the cottage. We basically bought out the whole store, the worker just laughed lol. 



Once we got to the cottage we couldn't resist but to get one more toffee pudding before departure. I just gotta say there is nothing better than this stuff. It is to die for !!!!! We sure do love our cottage town of Kersey, we will be sad to head home tomorrow and 5 am depart will come very soon.
