How fun that you found the group of cyclists -- I'm sure Rick was delighted. Windsor looks like a place I'd enjoy seeing. I envy your trip so much, and am glad that you were able to find ways around the trouble your ankle problems. The river cruise was a stroke of genius, indeed.shoreacreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284698314697628805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-62632569761736777872019-03-10T21:35:25.101-04:002019-03-10T21:35:25.101-04:00I had to go back and take a second look.

I'm glad the b&b was nice - that makes such a difference. I am glad you found a good teashop too - that scone looks yummy! But the highlight of the trip which really made me sigh was the boat ride. what a great idea! There is something so absolutely wonderful about going down a river in small boat. You see so much life, so many sights, and it's a slow, easy way to travel. A real stroke of genius on Rick's part!

...How fun for Rick to connect with the bike riders.<br />Windsor was one place I had hoped to go on our last time there, now I really wish we had made it a priority. The chapel for Evensong would have been wonderful. Sometimes pub food is just the best and as much as I love Thai food this would have been a delicious find. Then of course you must have tea in England. So happy you had a nice one with a good scone. Of course the birds would be special for you too. And the boat tour sounds like just the right thing to do.

MUST get there next time! Maybe you can see the Castle next time too! I'm just amazed how much you did all your trip, and with the wonky foot. :/ How wonderful you were able to experience Evensong at St. George's Chapel! Evensong is so lovely... Fun with the wine tips at the wine shop. And fun with the pub with Thai food! And sweet The Prince Harry pub. It is also fun how Rick manages to find cyclist friends wherever he goes! Something for everyone! :) So good to be back in England... Thanks, Jeanie!

I'm so glad y'all got to enjoy this trip and all the sights, even though I know you were in some pretty bad pain through alot of it. I love all the pictures, the architecture is amazing and of course you know how I love history. I know very little about their history, so I've just recently been reading some of it. The little place where you had tea looks so cozy! With all those cyclists showing up---it's a wonder Rick didn't just ride away with them!!! ha ha LOL---just joking!!

Not good timing for you on this trip. You somehow managed to see a lot and that smile lets me know it was still fun. I enjoyed seeing the sights of Windsor and Eaton with you. We visited there and did get to tour the castle. At the time it was all the news about Prince Wiliam's Birthday party there. We did get to see the magnificent room where it was held. And, of course the chapel. We made many memories there which was a day trip from London. Sorry you missed the castle and doll house, next time!!! I've enjoyed your trip pics so much. I've seen so many places you've been I would love to see.

The Queen was there and they were having a ceremony where she awarded titles so we did not get to see several areas.<br />I remember how much walking we did and I cringed thinking about your foot problems since I have had foot issues on several trips I can relate.<br />We took a bus there from London and we were the only people that showed up. I don't think that company made any money that day. <br />I regret not buying a teacup in the gift shop of china patterns of different royalty. They were expensive and I guess that is why I hesitated. They were gorgeous. It was crowded and they probably would not allow pictures because I don't have any of the inside of the castle.<br />You are smart to blog about your trips promptly because I am realizing how much I have forgottens<br />I enjoy your travel posts.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559612002837383953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-32241308395966822312019-03-06T20:47:59.900-05:002019-03-06T20:47:59.900-05:00I think you made the right choice. i've done W...I think you made the right choice. i've done Windsor Castle, and it is cool (the doll house too), but that would have been a lot of walking. And even though it was cool, you did some fantastic things which are probably more Windsor than the castle. And certainly lots of fun! Hope it was a good trip to Marlboro.
