Day 2 of the Anne Boleyn Experience Tour was a full day at Hever Castle, where we are staying, and the magic of Hever really worked today. There is just something about this place, it truly is magical. I love it.
After a night of not much sleep at all – I was too excited to sleep! – we enjoyed a lovely breakfast in the Astor Wing of Hever Castle before having free time to enjoy the gardens and castle. I love walking through the gardens before the public arrives because I can pretend that I am the lady of the manor.
The gardens just cannot be described in words. I cannot do them justice. They are breathtakingly beautiful. I did a couple of Facebook Live videos from the gardens and I hope my excitement and pure joy shone through, I was very excited. Then, I got even more excited because I visited the Hever Castle gift shop to find a display of my books. The staff were kind enough to allow me to take lots of selfies with my books. I also signed the copies they had so that they could sell them as signed copies. Seeing my books on sale in the shop of the Boleyn family home was truly a dream come true, one of those “pinch me” moments.
You are having one fantastic trip; think we can tell. Happy times. Happy memories. ‘Small cheer and great welcome makes a merry feast.’ Travel well, arrive safe.
Congratulations on having your books in the Hever shop.They highly deserve to be there and your books are some of my favorites on my Tudor shelves.Definitely looks like an awesome experience.
