On hirve\u00e4n vaikea p\u00e4\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 ett\u00e4 miss\u00e4 j\u00e4rjestyksess\u00e4 kertoisin matkasta. Kuvia on ihan julmetusti ja haluaisin jakaa ne kaikki. Mutta l\u00e4hes kahta tuhatta kuvaa en kyll\u00e4 rupea blogiin lataamaan. Koska en v\u00e4lit\u00e4 rantalomista enk\u00e4 shoppailusta niin lomat t\u00e4yttyv\u00e4t sitten erilaisista historiallisista tai muuten kiinnostavista kohteista, kuten nyt vaikka linnoista. Ehk\u00e4p\u00e4 kerronkin sitten siit\u00e4 ensimm\u00e4isest\u00e4 kohteestamme eli Arundelin linnasta<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pidin kovasti paikan lippusysteemist\u00e4. Lipuissa oli erilaisia hintavaihtoehtoja, jotka sis\u00e4lsiv\u00e4t p\u00e4\u00e4syn eri alueille. Kalleimmalla lipulla p\u00e4\u00e4si n\u00e4kem\u00e4\u00e4n ihan makuukammareihin asti, halvemmista hintaluokista oli sitten karsittu joitakin alueita pois. T\u00e4m\u00e4 on k\u00e4tev\u00e4\u00e4 esim jos aika linnassa k\u00e4ynnille on rajattu tai budjetti ei anna my\u00f6den ostaa kaikkein kalleinta lippua.<\/p>\n

Yritimme k\u00e4yd\u00e4 Arundelissa jo er\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 aikaisemmalla matkallamme<\/a> muutama vuosi takaperin, mutta se oli jo mennyt silt\u00e4 p\u00e4iv\u00e4lt\u00e4 kiinni.\u00a0Arundelissa, kuten monessa muussakin Englantilaisessa linnassa asutaan talvisin. Siell\u00e4 pit\u00e4\u00e4 majaa Norfolkin herttua perheineen. T\u00e4st\u00e4 syyst\u00e4 kuvaaminen itse linnan sis\u00e4ll\u00e4 on kielletty. Muualla linnan alueella saa kuvata mielin m\u00e4\u00e4rin. Linnan alueeseen kuuluu suuri ja vehre\u00e4, osin luonnontilainen puutarha, Fitzalan\u00a0kappeli ja keskiaikainen keskustorni jonka arvellaan olleen alkuper\u00e4inen linna 1100-luvulla.<\/p>\n

Oppaat olivat kaikki oikein yst\u00e4v\u00e4llisi\u00e4 ja kertoivat mielell\u00e4\u00e4n pieni\u00e4 anekdootteja. Esim Fitzalan kappelissa on n\u00e4ytt\u00e4v\u00e4 Arundelin\u00a0viidennen\u00a0jaarlin hauta johon Lordi Nelson on raaputtanut oman puumerkkins\u00e4 vuonna 1801. Paronin salissa itse linnassa taas oli vitriiniss\u00e4 kiinnostava kokoelma erilaisia hopeisia hahmoja. Katselimme niit\u00e4 aika pitk\u00e4\u00e4n, joten er\u00e4s opas l\u00e4hestyi meit\u00e4 ja kertoi ett\u00e4 niiden p\u00e4\u00e4t itseasiassa liikkuvat ja kehotti meit\u00e4 hypp\u00e4\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n vitriinin kohdalla. Lattian t\u00e4rin\u00e4st\u00e4 kaikkien hahmojen p\u00e4\u00e4t alkoivat heilua edestakaisin. Miten mainio pieni kohokohta patsaiden ja maalausten tuijottelun lomassa. Ja sitten loput kuvina. Kiinnitt\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4 erityist\u00e4 huomiota taidokkaasti kaiverrettuihin yksityiskohtiin kaikkialla.<\/p>\n

It is so difficult to decide where to start on the holiday photos. There’s a lot and I would love to share them all. But I’m not going to post almost 2000 photos on the blog. Because I don’t care about beach holidays or shopping, our holidays are filled with historical or otherwise interesting places, like castles. So perhaps I start with our first stop, Arundel Castle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I liked their ticket system very much. There were several different ticket categories, which included different areas in the castle. Most expensive one included even the bedrooms, cheaper tickets included less areas. This is handy if you only have limited amount of time or your budget doesn’t allow the most expensive ticket.<\/p>\n

We tried to visit Arundel already several years ago<\/a>, but it had already closed for the day. In Arundel, like in many English castle, people live during winter time. Duke of Norfolk lives there with his family. That’s why photographing inside the main castle was not allowed. However in other areas\u00a0photos were allowed. There’s lovely large garden, Fitzalan chapel and medieval keep, which they believe was originally the main castle in the 1100’s.<\/p>\n

All guides were very friendly and they were happy to tell you small anecdotes about the castle. For example, there is a beautiful grave of the fifth Earl of Arundel in the Fitzalan chapel. Lord Nelson has carved his name in the statue \u00a0on top of it. In the Baron Hall in the main castle there is a collection of small silver figurines. We were looking at them quite some time so one of the guides approached us and told us that they actually have moving heads. He told us to jump in front of the display cabinet. Vibration on the floor made all their heads to bobble back and forth. What a lovely little highlight during our visit. And then, rest is pictorial. Notice the very delicate and skillful details everywhere.<\/p>\n
