What I Love About Castles

The way that the towers stretch to the sky...


The dizzying drops...

and the scale that dwarfs



the mad angles...

secret passages...

and arches within arches

but I did not like the oubliette...


Half term means castles. Today we visited Kidwelly's. Find out more here

My first visit to Wales was to a castle. Whenever we are there, it is castles I seek.

Hard to imagine that people actually lived and died there at one time, in great masses - very awe inspiring!

more please :)

(we don't have castles here, booo)

Lovely castle, but Oubliette, no no! Although I do love to say the word, it kind of rolls around the mouth in a pleasing way!!!
