Arundel

Today, Arundel castle. It is a lovely Disney-fied castle, and I wouldn't put money on how authentic it might be, but it makes for great photos!

The weather remains bright and clear and sunny; not terribly warm, perhaps, but no worse than NZ in the spring.

I braved the 131 steps to the castle keep and took lots of photos.

Then we wandered around the town. I was nervous that shops might be shut as it is Good Friday, but fortunately some were still open, including one fabulous bookshop. Succumbed to a few more books. Suitcase is going to be horribly heavy!

On the way back to the train station, we passed a field in which rabbits were gambolling. They must have been Easter bunnies, out hiding chocolate eggs...
