Windsor Castle, UK

We managed to pick a fantastic day to go out to Windsor Castle. It was a fantastic experience. A highlight was seeing Sir Ed's coat of arms (something we weren't allowed to photograph), unfortunately they'd just taken down his crest to make way for his successor: Prince William.

I'm sure if the queen realised you were there, she might have popped out to say hello.
