Started off the day to a museum about England during WWII and the Blitz. Since it was a lovely sunny day we then walked about for a little before heading to the train station for a jaunt to Windsor. Once there we walked around the town and window shopped in Eton. Inspired by the glorious weather we rented a row boat and set out down the river Thames and explored some very jungly offshoots that made me feel like we were in the Danube and would be subject to an imminent crocodile attack.
The next order of business was nourishment and selected a restaurant called The Tower. Within 30 seconds of sitting down the waitress knocked two glasses of water straight into my lap!-thankfully they had a hand dryer in the bathroom which I used to dry myself up.
Our final stop (and reason for the day-trip) was a lecture by three female writers and historians (Allison Weir, Kate Williams and Sarah Gristwood) about the last thousand years of royal weddings and their new book The Ring and the Crown.
