Queen of the castle.

It was a beautiful sunny morning and I thought, where shall I go today. After studying the maps, I found a place just over an hours drive away. I have a new map of the Chesterfield area. First I had to get some petrol. With only 45 miles worth left in the tank, that was not going to get me very far. 

When I got there and found a free car park I had to sit in my car for 20 minutes. The skies went dark and the snow came down in big flakes. Now let's explore this castle. Should be interesting.  

The castle stands high above the town. The views were good, but would have been much better if the sun hadn't disappeared. 

It was bitterly cold, the wind was blowing a hoolie. I wrapped up warm with a big scarf. 

I climbed the tower for some better views over the gardens. 

It all looked looked neat and tidy down below. 

More snow, and rain, and I was ready for something to warm me up. A latte and cake. Naughty naughty. 

If you come back tomorrow, I'll tell you where I went. 

Catch ya later. Toodle pip.   ilona
