Windsor Castle

This was also a favorite for Mum and I! The castle is very large and extravagant. The grounds are beautiful and I must admit I took tons of pictures in preparation for what may be our next film!!! Inside were magnificant paintings, old books and writings from Queen Elizabeth, Sir Thomas Moore, etc...we even got to see Henry the VIII's battle armour. Other neat things we saw were gifts given to Queen Victoria from other country leaders--like crowns from Egypt, Amazon people, the cloak of Napoleon taken from his carriage, etc. In the castle is also Princess Margaret's humungous doll house equiped with everything in scale with Buckingham Palace.
