So, today we headed off to Warwick Castle. And don't pronounce it War-wick. Pronounce it "Woh-ick Castle" Anyway, it is owned by the Madame Tussaud's group, so there are some great wax figures inside. And they aren't wax like we think wax. It is wax like plastic. Well done, very life like, as you shall soon see. See if you can pick out my daughter from the fake ones! She had so much fun with the wax figures! Warwick Castle is great, a truly well saved castle that has been maintained. Being owned by the big companies now can't hurt either. But the skating rink! Glory be! I did not realize how little they actually see snow here! People were paying £16 to get in and then another £8 to go skating and another £7 to go tubing! Now, doing the conversion, apart from the castle entrance, they were paying $33CDN to experience what we try to get out of! Go figure! First glimpse of the castle
Ahh, the gems!
... daydreaming!
Isn't that pretty!
