Windsor

Its actually surprising that on a day when we planned a couple of things, we managed only one. I think the travel in London & our holiday fatigue is getting to us.

Windsor is a very fine palace. Some of the rooms, especially one which has all order of knights place over the walls and the roof. The chapel is also very quaint and had a very English fell to it. It has the flags representing knights who are still alive giving it a royal touch.

By the time we finished admiring the castle, we had consumed nearly 3 hours and were running a bit late for the river cruise on the Thames.

Inspite of making a dash for it, we reached Embankment station 10 mins past 5 and in the bargain, missed the cruise. Infact the offices had shut down and it felt like we were a few hours late.

We managed to grab a mini dinner of the quintessential English jacket potatoes topped with tuna & cheese. With our stomachs satisfied we reached home and continued the hogging witha great dinner of sambar, rice, sabzi and pickle.
