Rekindled Love

Having been back from England a week now I’m back on my New York shit, my English fairytale bubble has finally deflated and I’m on serious work mode.
I did however have an adventure I’ll never forget, saw people I never thought I’d ever see again and walked in the foot steps of Henry and Anne that i had so much been fantasizing over.
My country really is a beautiful one with so much amazing history. Something, as a little girl i totally took for granted, I had never taken in quite how breathtaking the old Buildings, Cathedrals and Castles really are.
I fell in love with Hever Castle and decided that is where i shall get married (when and with whom is yet to be decided!) it was an amazing feeling walking through the house and gardens knowing the great Anne Boleyn had taken those same walks over 500 years ago.
Just when I didn't think I could see anything more magnificent I visit Hampton Court, Henry Viii’s Palace had me speechless...so this is where it all went down!..amazing.
Every House, Store and Pub in Lewis and Ditching looked like it was still in the 13th century and beautifully preserved.
I can now see why the Americans call us ‘Quaint’ so true!
New York is my home now, but I can definitely confirm...I fell back in love with England!
