Today I learned that Warwick Castle is another absolutely ancient structure. It was begun on the order of William the Conqueror in 1068, and has been expanded many times from there. While there isn't much content to learn at the site (too much flashy video and wax people, not enough explanation), it is exhilarating to walk around a complex that has been around almost a millennium.
I also discovered that an ice skating trail is a perfectly delightful diversion. The scenery changes as you go through, and the wall is always only a few feet away if you feel yourself slipping. Jimmy, Dad, and I had a great time winding our way through the peacock garden on skates.
