Windsor Castle. What a sight. All English and British monarchs have lived in this castle since William the Conquerer. And today one was on sight. The Queen was in residence today at Windsor. We, of course, did not see her, and was not invited up for tea, but her standard flew above the castle indicating her presence. What a grand idea. Royalty dwelling close! (see Philippians 2).
We were able to experience the changing of the guard. What a wonderful experience. The guard band actually played several traditional pieces along with the theme to "Austin Powers". Everybody enjoyed!
Went to the Trout Inn for dinner, a local haunt for C.S. Lewis when he was at Oxford. Wonderful meal celebrating my friend Mark's 30th Birthday. I actually had a pint (of lemonade that is!). Beautiful day, wonderful friends, and a gracious God. What more could you ask for?
Back to London tomorrow. Then home on Sunday.
