A little trip to Windsor

We'd had a fairly lazy Saturday morning and had nothing really pressing to do in the afternoon so decided that a trip to Windsor would be a good idea as the alternative was to sit in front of the TV or computer screen. We've not been to Windsor before so off we went. It's only about 35 minutes from here in the car and we thought we should head for the town centre as it was now mid afternoon and the traffic surely couldn't still be too heavy.

As we approached the town we saw lots of car park signs all with FULL signs on so we made a quick turn for the short stay car park by the river. Ouch, £7 for 4 hours parking.

We wandered up the hill towards the Castle, here's a shot of our first sight of it

Further up the hill it was time for some tourist shots

The open top bus is £7 each. We didn't ask how much the horse drawn carriage cost to ride in neither did we see anyone else ask. I guess that's why the poor old guy looks a bit fed up. I guess he's not happy about open top busses!

and now some more "Arty" shots

All in all Windsor is quite a nice place and we plan to go back some time soon to take a tour of the castle which we understand is very interesting
