If you've seen on historic place......
I think I am jaded. Either that, or I am exceptionally tired. Today was the last Butler sponsered trip and we went to Hampton Court Palace and Windor Castle/Eton. Sorry to say, as much as I appreciated being able to go, I was not impressed by the Palace, the Castle or Eton for that matter. I think there is a time when you travel, when you are abroad, that you just stop marveling at sites. Perhaps it was because of the shitty London rain and fog together again on this day...I don't know. Something just seemed off.But, as always I took and abundant amount of pictures...that is all I really could do. At least in Hampton you could go inside as Butler pre-paid our way, but at Windor they just handed us a map and said "off you go" I thought it would be implied that we would get to see the castle-as they would have paid. But no. And they only gave us 2 hours. By the time I had stopped in MD for a burger and walked simultaneously to Eton, an hr had already passed....that cut out the castle, and someone later told me hardly anyone went b/c there simply was not enough time.
:sighs: oh well. No big deal. If you have seen on castle/church/historic place...you really have seen them all. I am not exaughsted from our 9am departure from Notting Hill Gate...must go to sleep now.......
