The ROOOOOUUUUNNNNDDDD Table!!!



Okay, for all you "Camelot" fans, you'll have to say the title of this blog with the enthusiasm of Richard Harris as King Arthur. Here's the legendary round table, although believed to be a fake, at the Great Hall in what's left of Winchester Castle.

Wolvesey Castle in Winchester






Not everyday you get to walk around medieval castle ruins! We didn't even know this was in Winchester. What a pleasant surprise!

More of the town






Here are some more pictures of Winchester. The shot of Amanda and mom is in front of the tearoom where we had lunch. Really good scones! And, I took the picture of the Pizza Express for our friends in Bloomingon, Indiana. Somehow I'm guessing this Pizza Express is a little different...;)

Here are some pics from the town of Winchester. We found a delightful little park and riverwalk near the cathedral.

More Jane at Winchester




How cool is this! This was upstairs in the Winchester Cathedral near its library.

I'm not sure that we Americans have any concept of "old" over here in the "New World". A 12th century tomb- c'mon!

Here are some highlights of the architecture of Winchester Cathedral- as seen from an amateur's lens and an inexpensive camera.
