Arundel (Part 2) - Not

27th Oct - Rain then fine

We bid good friend Janet in Worthing a fond farewell (seen here with Daughter Caroline and Betty).








Got to Arundel again, only to find that they had experienced power problems and could not let people into the castle.We could have brought a ticket for the grounds and gardens, but it turned out that the ticket could not be upgraded to one covering the apartments if the power returned
They could be upgraded to cover the keep and great hall etc. but not the apartments which is what we had come to see. Bureaucracy rules.....







So instead we stopped at Fishbourne Roman Palace near Chichester. We rather liked this partial bust of one of the first roman rulers (supposedly of all England).

Some of the mosaic floors were really wonderful
