Back in London (via Windsor)

I stayed in Windsor overnight. It was a quick trip but I was really keen to see Windsor Castle and I am pleased I made the effort I don't have many photos because you weren't allowed to take photos inside but it is a beautiful place and really interesting to see all the rooms. There were moments of discomfort (the whole colonial domination) but overall it was a really impressive and beautiful place to visit.

After Windsor I caught the train to London. I was in London at the start of my trip and it was nice to return and see it in full Christmas mode. I had forgotten how busy London is but it was worth battling the crowds to see the amazing Christmas lights. These last few days have been a bit random. Some of the things I had organised in advance were seeing a play with the Crawleys which was lots of fun, having a meal at an Ottolenghi restaurant which was one of the most beautiful meals I have ever had, going to an immersive AI exhibition and seeing the amazing artwork of Bob Dylan. I sort of watched the changing of the guard. I didn't get the full experience because the crowds were crazy so I barely saw anything and didn't stay for the whole thing. Other things I have managed to do is visit some Christmas markets, explore the streets and also visit the National Gallery which was fantastic.
