Ok, here's more of our nonconformist Easter traditions. It goes like this: We go to the Easter Car Show after church, we go to White Castle because we haven't eaten since breakfast and it's like 3 now, then we eat the White Castles, build a castle out of the boxes, and take a nap.

This is the ruins of Castle Rising Castle, near the village of Castle Rising. When we got to the car park, I noticed a school party. So as soon as we paid and got in, I went all the way around taking pictures of the castle. By the time I completed one lap of the castle mound above, the secondary school kids started to come in. So I went out, had a little look at the village and road then back in. Weren't here for long but at least I got my photos of the castle. I missed going inside it, but then those students were probably inside doing school work or something. It is north of King's Lynn, and south of Sandringham.
