Short and sweet tonight folks... it was a long day and we just got back to the house after seeing Inception, a good flick.
This morning a very knowledgeable lecturer joined us and gave us the history of the UK from the year 46AD to the 17th century... WOW did we cover a LOT!
Then, it was off to Blenheim Palace where we saw the birthplace of Winston Churchill, weren't allowed to take pictures inside the palace - but it was HUGE!, played in a maze, had a game of wizards chess in the rain, visited the butterfly garden, rode a tiny train, chased geese, climbed inside the rabbit hole to follow Alice and the White Rabbit, learned about tapestries and china, and discovered that the Duke drives a Range Rover.
Our bus ride home was full of quick stops and crop circles. We had been going all day so we decided tonight would be a perfect movie night. We saw inception and everyone was buzzing about dreams and the meaning of reality on the walk home.
Tomorrow is a full day out and about at Warwick castle and Stratford upon Avon.
Pictures from today are posted in the Picasa album.
Cheerio!
