Hampton Court

Tuesday I gave the final exam in Religion, and after class we headed to Hampton Court in company with Lauren Carlile. She didn't go when the group went because she was in Paris. We bought our train tickets just as the Hampton-Court train departed. So the thoughtful ticket agent told us that if we took the Surbiton train we could beat the Hampton Court train to that station and be able to pick up the the Hampton-Court train that had just departed in Surbiton. Sweet! The weather held and we had a nice day. Since she wasn't going, Kris was kind enough to correct the tests for me while we were gone. Thank you, Kris.

Lauren, me, and Katy at Hampton Court --
the huge balls in the tree in the background are mistletoe

Katy and Lauren checking out Henry VIII -- the clock tower
is being restored and maintained, hence the scaffolding

A nice winter mood in the gardens

The King's apartments face the formal garden

Lauren and Katy are amazed by the maze!

I'll show you what we did today in the next post.
