This time we went and had Mexican food in a cute restaurant and then made our way up to the castle. Its supposedly quite a famous castle because it was saved from bombing in the second world war (Don't mention the war! I did it once but Ithink I got away with it!). It wasn't bombed because a famous author liked it alot and was goods freinds with Winston Churchill and put in a good word about it.
Anyway, enough of that, on with the pictures.
Street artists, they're everywhere, like flies :)
A view up the main shopping street up to the castle.
This is in the restaurant.
The famous castle
The walk up to the castle was MUCH steeper and longer than we anticipated, but totally worth the climb.
This gate amused me somewhat. It is locked and those stairs go down down down to .. nothing. But the sign says "Women only"
For a castle that wasn't bombed, its in pretty bad shape to be honest. When we were there they were doing some major repairs so maybe its looking a little better now.
