It wasn’t originally my plan this weekend to go down to Swansea – but on Saturday Mum and I drove down to see my sister (and to bring some of her things back from uni).

I parked in the Home Park car park, just outside the centre of town. I walked up the High Street to the Visitors’ Entrance of Windsor Castle, and went to have a look around one of the Royal Residences.

Last weekend, just 2 weeks after returning from Itzehoe, I headed back to Germany. I booked a cheap flight from Birmingham to the city of Hannover.
