Even More London Fun

1.6.10

I looked through a ton of pictures from the award show but couldn't find any that showed where Brittany and I were. I though about putting some pictures of the celebs up, but who really wants to see them anyways ;P

Rather, here are some more pictures from me! During brad's visit we took an afternoon trip to Hampton Court. I am obsessed with all things Tudor right now so it was perfect timing!! King Henry VIII spent a lot of time here, it is probably his most well known hang out spot.


This is me along the Thames with the palace in the background

Brad at the gate!
We are sitting on pretend thrones set up just like they would have been for King Henry and Catherine of Argon (wife#1)


All the trees were cut to look like mushrooms and Hershey kisses


We decided to grab a bite to eat, a chicken stew pie and coffee with bread- very 1500s

One of the main gardens. They were so extravagant.


In the distance you can see all the chimneys- these are typical architecture from the Tudor era.

Another lovely garden.


Brad with the largest and oldest grapevine in the world!


And this is its original root, it's crazy big like a tree trunk


There were actors that walked around as Henry and his last wife pretending it was their wedding day.

This was definitely a highlight for me, we were a bit pressed for time but it was very fun. The gardens were beautiful and there is so much history wrapped up in the palace!
