Warwick Castle
Among our many adventures we also went to Warwick Castle. This castle was different than the one in Wales because they kept the inside furnished. Each section was decorated according to a different time period. I think it went from Medieval times to around the 1930s. Every single room was covered with elaborate pieces of furniture and even the ceilings had ornate carvings in them. It was fantastic to see. The grounds around the castle were amazing as well. The gardens had really nice flowers and perfectly trimmed hedges and there were more peacocks than I've seen in a life time. You could get really close to them too. We also went on a kind of ghost tour but it showed the dungeons and they had actors that pretended to be executioners and torturers. At one point they locked Ben's mom in a cage and wouldn't let her out! The whole thing was pretty fun. There were bird shows and a demonstration with a flaming cannon ball too. It was all really interesting to see and it makes me wish there were more castles in the states.
