Warwick Castle

The weather was not good it was gloomy and rainy. I dont think we can get a good photo with the weather like that, but since we planned for it, we went to. It was a cold day, i wore layers of clothes hahaha. 
As you can see in the photos below its not that so lively it looks sad and dark hahaha

This was our second time in this Castle. We been here before but it was night time, it was a tour to the dungeon, a scary halloween. We only experience the dungeon that time because we were late. Late for looking a parking space. We dont have time to explore more of the castle. Its night time also and its dark. Anyways during this visit even its rainy but still at least day time. We went to the towers, OMG it was a long climb in a steep small step to each towers. My legs was so tired from it, before i reached to the top i was racing with my breath, I did not expect it. It looks like an easy climb from the outside it looks like not a tall tower. Well the climb was worth it to see the whole view of the castle. I must say its a must in visiting this castle, you have to climb to the tower.  

There are a lots of peacocks roaming around the castle and a duck. We watched the bird show, but i did not have photo of it as it was raining during the show, its not really a rain but it can wet my camera, so i hide it inside my bag. It's a good show though.

A bit history of Warwick 

Warwick Castle (/ˈwɒrɪk/WORR-ik) is a medieval castle developed from an original built by William the Conqueror in 1068. Warwick is the county town of Warwickshire, England, situated on a bend of the River Avon. The original wooden motte-and-bailey castle was rebuilt in stone in the 12th century. During the Hundred Years War, the facade opposite the town was refortified, resulting in one of the most recognisable examples of 14th century military architecture. It was used as a stronghold until the early 17th century, when it was granted to Sir Fulke Greville by James I in 1604. Greville converted it to a country house and it was owned by the Greville family, who became Earls of Warwick in 1759, until 1978 when it was bought by the Tussauds Group.
