Windsor Castle

I woke up today not feeling so great. My throat was killing me, my eyes itchy, and my head hurt. Another girl in the group was having the same issues. It was very cold and windy today also. I saw someone on the tube reading a paper and it said ash cloud headed this way in the next few days because of the volcano that erupted in Iceland, so my symptoms will probably only get worse. I found out also that flights were cancelled in Europe sunday so then that is probably the reason why we missed our Dublin flight. Everything happens for a reason, I like to say! Plus it was raining all weekend and I heard it was very cold and just not a good weekend to go, so maybe it is better we missed the flight. Anyways, once we arrived we ate lunch at a French restraunt and then headed to the castle. We went to Windsor castle and it was huge! They only let you really go in one part which kind of sucked since they charge you 15 pounds to get in, but it was def cool to see! I also hated that they wouldn't let us take pictures inside. Thats my favorite part when going anywhere, is to get lots of pictures. The most fun part to me was when Korunn and me were trying to get the guard to laugh, and fortunatly we succeeded!! We were acting like complete fools and had everyone around us laughing! They were probably like "Those crazy americans!" After we left the castle we walked all around the area and went in some shops, and got ice cream! We also got some over the counter medicine to help us sleep since neither of us went to bed till after 5am. I dont know why im having so much trouble this time with sleep. We ended up leaving about 5pm to head back to our dorms. When Korunn and I got back we went to this pizza place around the corner and got a pizza to go. Now I am filling out postcards and writing on here!!
