A ride on the Tube and National Rail with all my luggage (which has grown since I got here!) deposited me in Windsor, right on the Thames. After getting settled into my B&B, I set off to explore the river with swans (the Queen's birds) and the two towns.
I wandered across a footbridge, down an appealing High Street, and through Eton College (think high school), imagining Prince William and Prince Harry around any corner. I am hereby adopting Eton's motto as my own: Keep Calm and Carry On. :)
Looking up from lunch at a riverside cafe to see Windsor Castle dominating the skyline felt like I had landed in a real live fairy tale! I'm saving that treat for tomorrow morning, hoping to catch the changing of the guard.
