Windsor Castle...

Being somewhat cultural for a change... I went to Windsor (and Windsor Castle) with my flatmate. Really nice town and cool castle!
After visiting the part open for visitors (absolutely ridiculous decoration, pheeeew... mental!!), for which we got ripped (as usual here), we walked around a bit and decided to go to the pub (The Horse & Groom) we had spotted at the beginning of the journey. There we had our "Beef and Ale pie": a classic!! It´s one of those dishes that ALWAYS seem to taste good, amazing, I mean, considering the "quality", or should we say "lack of it", of the "Cuisine Anglaise"...
Now, apparently, the place was Henry VIII´s favourite pub. HA! It´s supposed to even have a secret passage to the castle... Great atmosphere with some tradition inside and we were sitting in the best place, just infront of the cheminée... Really nice!! And it was Lynn´s first pub, since arriving in September (oh la la)... Well, she had been in a beergarden but that barely counts!

About me

  • Bonjour, I'm Marco, welcome to my little place on the Internet.
  • I started this blog when I arrived in London in early 2006, hence the name “london-connection”. In the meantime I have moved to Paris, after a short stint in Geneva. I like to write about silly stuff, about sports, travelling and going out… just about everything that crosses my mind, actually. The little things that spice life up a bit.
  • I hope you enjoy the trip...
