Hampton Court Palace

The sun was shining, the weather was gorgeous, the temperature was ideal, and it was the perfect day to spend outside roaming the grounds of the Hampton Court Palace. As soon as we arrived at the palace, we chatted with King Henry VIII and Catherine Parr for a little while then walked around the rest of the palace to learn more about dear old King Henry and his obsession with beheading his wives. After all the beheading talk, we had a lovely lunch in the palace then spent the rest of the day finding our way through the maze, walking around the astounding gardens, and seeing the Great Vine that was planted in 1768!Still the best part of the day was being joined by Brittany's parents, who came with us to the palace. Brittany's dad even joined us in our famous "jumping picture".
It took us about a hundred times to get it right, but we finally got the shot! Until tomorrow, cheerio!
