A Happy Day @ Hever

This past weekend, Pauline, Jon and myself, took seven students to Hever Castle for one of their Medieval Jousting events.  It was a great day  ...  and a HOT day!!

Daniel, Lian, Pauline, Me, Laiba, Jon, Gulu, Colette, Himanshu & Filza

We started our day hiring three rowing boats and enjoying 40 minutes on the lake.  Not sure if you've ever done rowing ... but it's rather hard 😮😮😮 and for several of us, there were moments of simply going around in circles.



I'm really sorry, Himanshu, that I was         so bossy 😒

Then we all had time to enjoy the gardens and the castle, or simply grab an iced coffee.





The main event of the day, was the jousting display. Even though I have seen this almost ten times now, I never tire of it, it's sooooooo much fun 
😀


The grounds of Hever Castle are so beautiful and there's a lot of nature to enjoy. Following the jousting Pauline, Colette and I walked all around the lake.

The very perfect ending to a HOT SUNNY DAY, was a walk around the water maze, and a chance to get wet and cool off 😀

This was my last student trip before I retire and it was such a lovely day. Thanks everyone 😍😍😍
