We all hopped on the train to a specific station where we caught another train to another station that took us to the city of Windsor. We had tickets to visit Windsor Castle, the Queen's favorite!
We were all given an audio guide so we could walk the tour at our own pace. It's always cool to see places like these, but I wish we could see all the rooms that they block off. I would LOVE to see the master bedroom and bathroom! Wouldn't that be fantastic?!?!
It was a beautiful day, and the castle grounds were so gorgeous! Here are some pictures I took of the day:
This is where the men who sing in the choir live.
After wandering around the castle and the castle grounds, Luke, Liza, and I went to a Thai food buffet for lunch. Then we got ice cream at a nearby shop. After that, we all took a private tour of St. George's Chapel. It was super cool, but sadly, we weren't allowed to take any pictures. You can see a few photos from their website by clicking here.
We were invited to sit in on the rehearsal of the boy's choir for that night's evensong service. It was so cool to watch James Vivian work with the young boys. We even got to see some other familiar faces. There were a handful of men in the choir who also sing with Tenebrae and The Tallis Scholars. We then participated in the evensong service which was lovely.
After that, we were on our own. Most of us went home right away. Then Luke, Tyrell, Liza, and I went to Byron's for dinner. They had great burgers, fries, and shakes!
