Paul's birthday trip


I had booked a hotel for Paul's birthday but unfortunately the closest date I managed to get was in November! The hotel was in Reading so we stopped off along the way to visit Windsor as we had not really had a chance to look at the town itself when we last went. After having a nosey around we made our way to the hotel where we spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing.
 
On the Sunday while travelling back to London we stopped in at Basildon Park which is home to an 18th Century mansion surrounded by 400 acres of historic parkland. At the park they had recreated a 1950's kitchen and we had to have the traditional cream tea before we left!

Mmm cream team!
