UK - Day 3 - Windsor Castle

Today Michelle took us on a trip to Windsor castle. It was great seeing all the old archetecture and all the old things around the place.

First off (after getting lost on the M25 a little bit) we went to Windsor and had lunch at this cafe at this small quiet area in the street.

The food looked and tasted good, but unfortunatley the servings were so small, A$25 was waaay to expensive (ill bet it was a nice inflated tourist price).

After lunch we headed to Windsor Castle, we took a tour, its an amazingly big building, all made of stone. I found it interesting that it was originally made of wood in 1010 (or something), and they started replacing the wood with stone 100 years after its construction.

We then checked out the inside of the castle, and the chappel where Prince Charles recently got married. For such a medieval looking building, the inside was just amazing, with detailed artwork, and intricate furniture everywhere.

After we finished at Windsor we went back to Michelle's house, and I went up with her to the supermarket. Not much, but it was good to do something with Michelle without Issac and Corrado. Also, I was curious about what Brittish supermarkets were like. Not supprisingly, it was pretty similar, with similar brands to Australian supermarkets, similar products. Also, a nice supprise was to see that you can indeed get Milo in the UK, well you can at Sainsbureys supermarkets anyhow for only £3.50, which is about $10 AU, expensive, but worth every cent (or pent as it might be here).

Michelle has been great, really making an effort for us, we keep telling her that she doesnt need to bend over backwards to please us, but she insists. We certianly appreciate the good hospitality. We'd all like to give Michelle, Phillip, Talullah and Ruby a huge THANK YOU for being so great to us over the last few days.

Tomorrow we fly to Italy at 7am, which is going to take me and Issac right out of our comfort zones. Might be a while till I can post again.

Ciao!
