Stuck

Lots of exciting things have been happening. This one time (yesterday) we went to Hampton Court. It's this HUGE palace. Actually, if the queen wanted too, she could chose to live there again and the place would be closed to the public. Did you know the queen can do whatever she wants? And if she makes a law no one can undo it, unless they get written consent from her! Must be nice. Anyway. Hampton Court was full of frivolous and exquisite items that basically shows how rich royal families are. After touring some of the "apartments" of various royal icons, Ben and I decided it would be fun to do the maze. it was fun. And long. And confusing. And it was raining so we got pretty wet. Here's Ben trying to get us out of there.



It was an adventure to say the least. I got most of our journey on camera. which will hopefully be debuting soon (once Ben approves it... it's mostly him ranting about how we are never going to get out of the maze). But we did! Probably took a little bit longer than it should have....

After eating and venting about that stupid maze, we went out to the gardens. I decided that my future home must have some just like it.


See? Beautiful! And that's just part of it... It goes on for forever! We found a nice secluded patch of grass and took a little power nap. It was surprisingly super relaxing.


So overall, (if you factor out the maze) Hampton Court was a thumbs up. We even got to talk to one of Henry VIII Mistress's. (he had a lot). She said I could be a mistress, if I filled out my chin more and did something with my hair. Straight doesn't cut it I guess. She just started rubbing her bosom any time she talked to Ben. She was a very nice lady I guess. Her wisest words were, "Keep your virtue until you get married, then you can do whatever you want." Thanks. I'll remember that...
