Brighton

Brighton is the home of George the IV's garish Pavillion. They won't let you take photos inside, but I've included a shot of the onion domes from the exterior.

We have also been back here with the spring group. After George died, Victoria gave it to the city because she didn't like it and said you couldn't see the sea from the windows - which is true.

Brighton beach and pier is kind of like the boardwalks that we know except the beach is all rocks rather than sand. People still go out and eat and play on the beach. The day we were there the weather changed every 10 minutes. The clouds made for great picture-taking. A couple of weeks ago it was no fun because the sky was clear blue.

End of that trip.
