  1. Lovely photos of Alnwick Castle! Did Lynda not go inside the castle? It's well worth a visit. I hope that they still do a Medieval Festival in the town? They used to do it every year and I remember visiting the festival once or twice in my childhood. I love Alnwick!

    Once again thanks for sharing the photos.
