Dead Alive

PS- Forgot to mention this when I was talking (again) about how no one cares about anything. Claire and I definitely almost got trapped in the castle on Saturday. I knew that it was around closing time when we were hanging out there, but I didn't realize just how close until we were exiting the castle and this woman was in the process of closing this heavy, iron door behind her. She tried to reassure us and said something about how she was just closing it to open it again, but I just had a feeling that she was saying that to comfort us, and really had no plan to go retrieve any of the other dozens of people still milling around inside. As our tour guide put it, "Sometimes, you get up there, and die."

Oh, also didn't mention how I had a nice garden picnic on Tuesday. But you know what, I don't think I want to anymore.

Yes--that was so scary! We almost had to spend a night in the castle.
