A Trip to the Castles



The weekend keeps on spawning eventful surprises as the Weiss family takes me out on yet another discovery of the United Kingdom. Today we decided to do a bit of a large tour starting by climbing Coppett Hill and looking at the beautiful view to be then followed by a trip to Goodrich Castle for the remainder of the evening.

So as most days start, we begun the expedition early in the morning with a strong hearty breakfast. Once we got the breakfast in our stomachs we quickly had a quick look out the window to see fog covering the windows. The fog was so thick I couldn’t see the Land rover parked in the driveway. But we still went for the idea to continue our journey through the fog up Coppett Hill.



Paul, Tom, Sam, William, Joe, Sasha (their dog) and I powered through the fog and toward Coppett Hill. This was a prime time to see how athletic the family was by walking with them for a "brief walk". Since it was so foggy, I had to stick very close to Paul or otherwise I would've been as lost as a blind navigator. We eventually reached the top of Coppett Hill where there was meant to be a view of all the surrounding villages, but what we found is the thickest of fog. We could barely see each other!

Since there wasn't much to look at except thick fog, Paul decided to take us for a trip up to Goodrich Castle. Here we had a look at the historic ornament in Goodrich. This was a massive throwback to see how many of the citizens would have lived back in the day of Castles and Knights. 
 Paul was telling me all about the amazing views which would have been there if there was no fog. But I still used the power of the imagination to look at the castle as it would have been.
