Hampton Court
Today brought me to Hampton Court, famous for being the home of Henry the VIII. The palace is huge, it covers six acres and the gardens cover at least sixty acres. Needless to say I did not see everything, but I saw a lot. I saw the Chapel Royal, built by Henry the VIII and the King's state rooms. The king being William of William and Mary fame. I also walked through a lot of the gardens, although I didn't get a chance to go through the maze, though I did see it.
