Windsor Castle

Part of Windsor Castle; it's quite huge














One entry way














The original 12th century keep, built by 

Henry II




















Big bailey; the Queen lives  in the high middle structure,
so we were told









In tough times, the changing of the guard is cut back...


















Chapel of St. George, very impressive fan vaulting, etc., 

but, as with elsewhere indoors, no pix


















Night-time from our "camp site"




























We reluctantly left London and drove back out to Windsor, to see the great castle. I was impressed, obviously more so than our 1989 visit, which I had completely forgotten. We parked that night in a city carpark, legally, right under the castle.
