Greeting to all!!

[CoffeeFrog]

One day I would like to visit a real castle, touch the walls that thousands of people may have touched through a thousand years... I'd imagine they would be cold to the touch & even clammy in some places.

----------------
Right? I love Castles and Would love to go on a Castle Tour.. And Take all kinds of pics !!
-
Maybe someday, we'll get our wish..

I forgot there are actual Castle tours!

I've seen documentaries on castles but I think it would put the history in a deeper perspective to actually see a castle.

got to save our money & research which castles to travel to.

I've been to Hearst Castle , but it's not what comes to mind when I think "castle."

What was a learning moment for me was when I was in social studies back in Jr. High is that most of the images of castles I'd seen in movies/tv/media all of my life where not in England.

Of course Japanese castles are not what I think of either, but they meet the criteria I suppose (actually not sure what defines a "castle" -- a defensible place to live that has a lot of stone?). LOL

I think I've been to Gillette's Castle, once or twice in my life ( I really don't remember because it was like a very, very, very, very long time ago.)
-
Yeah There are Castles in France, Scotland and Ireland too. I'm almost certain there castle in a lot of various places.. Yeah most my castle seeing comes for those things too and video games..

I don't know if this will help but:

But yeah, it's something crazy but usually very beautiful even in ruin..

That looks like a castle alright! I'd imagine the hundreds of years old ones would be interesting just to learn about the solutions they came up with just for day to day stuff.

Thanks for the link! Yeah, it seems many things meet that criteria that we don't even name castles.
