Downton Abbey

Photobucket
Months of planning and coordinating childcare, and we were off! Even grey skies and rain couldn't dampen our fun girls day out. Downton Abbey has brought a whole new level of fame and attention to this beautiful castle. It may come as a shock to some, but it's not actually called Downton Abbey! Did I just hear a bubble burst? :) Highclere Castle has an interesting aristocratic history, quite similar to the Crawley's Downton Abbey, but people these days are making the trek because they want to experience a slice of Downton. Just like us! It was a thrill to see where they film inside and out of the castle. And of course so fun to be there with great friends!

I couldn't resist this cheesy side-by-side

This was such a great day! Loved it all, especially just hanging out with some of my best girls! Oh and that lunch... still thinking about it...

What a great girls' outing! I was late to the Downton party but loved it all the same. Looking forward to another season. Why must we wait so long?!
