day 3 in London: Hampton Court

hampton court has got to be one of my favourite places. south of london(30 mins by train) it's a splendid palace with kickass gardens. i actually spent 4 hours here wandering about while listening to the audio guide, watching their plays and performances and just enjoying the sight. there weren't too many peopl as well. the gardens were really nice and they even had a maze(but it was closed when we got there) for 10 pounds,i'd say it was more than my money's worth

the palace front view
some demonstrations going on. i think the guy was making some pastry or sth
they were even roasting meat! i wonder if they gave it out later on...
this was the one pic i took that was in a non-shoot zone. i came in from the back entrance, the no camera zone was in the front! and everybody was taking pictures ,haiz
the jester of the court with his performance, he was pretty funny and got the crowd into the act as well


the gardens, nth spectacular, it was getting dark and it was hard to take pics
