Arundel Castle

I've been pretty busy since my last post and the weather here is incredible - cloudless hot days with a nice breeze. Hope that doesn't mean that it will rain the rest of the summer...

On Sunday a group of us went to check out Arundel Castle, which is one of the oldest country "homes" in England. The motte (a tall artifical mound) is the oldest part of the castle - built in 1068. I was born in 1968, and using my incredible powers of mathematics (or "maths" as they like to say here), that means this place is 900 years older than I am!

It was really incredible - gorgeous gardens, private chapel, the view from the Keep.
