Last Day - Windsor Castle

Well, we head home tomorrow. It's been a great trip. Kind of sad to leave, but also totally exhausted, so coming home sounds good. Today we went to Windsor Castle for our last hurray in England.

Here's the view of the castle from the outside. Windsor is the oldest and largest continually inhabited castle in the world.



Here's the inner wall, once you come through the outer wall.



We visited the state apartments which are used by the royal family for state functions, but you can't take any pictures inside. Here's the walk up through the gates toward the state apartments.



The castle also has it's own church. It's called a chapel, but it looks more like a cathedral.



Windsor Castle is like a little village of it's own, within the castle walls. Here's the staff housing area.



Well, we fly out tomorrow morning. See you all soon.

  1. Well, even I am sad to see your trip come to an end. What an adventure! I am so thrilled that you had this opportunity to fulfill possibly the dream of a lifetime. Although exhausted I am sure that you will revel in the memories you have created for many, many days and years to come. Thank you for taking us along and welcome home soon. Happy Flying!
