I almost can't believe I didn't post yesterday! We were busy packing for our return trip to London.
Yesterday was a lazy kind of day, with a nice relaxed drive to Corfe Castle. We were going to see Wardour Castle as well, but it was closed. I'm guessing because of all the snow they had here a week earlier. The word "Castle" is used loosely for Corfe, as you can see it really is closer to a "ruin". We had a nice walk through the village and around the castle, and I made it over a fence and up to a hill overlooking the castle and the town for some photos.
One of the largest differences between the UK and Germany, at least as far as we've experienced, is that the majority of castles and ruins are open and free in Germany, and fairly expensive in the UK. We chose to save our money on this castle, and had a very nice lunch instead just around the corner to the front gates to the castle/ruin.
And today, like I alluded to earlier, was a travel day. It was a quick drive, and after a lot of train transfers we eventually made it to our flat in Blackheath (London). Ian has been proudly telling everyone we meet or run across about his loose tooth. It was news to me on this trip that he had a loose tooth. Well, loose tooth no longer.
Welcome Hockey Smile!!
Tomorrow is our last full day in England. We'll see "The Lion King", which should be a treat for the whole family. Other than that, not much on the radar aside from wandering the streets in Covent Garden and possible near Trafalgar Square. Have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Marc
