England: Day 15

We drove two hours to Brighton and it was once again good to see another part of England. The trip there and back took a bit longer than expected because there happened to be a cycling race, which brought in 27,000 bikers from all over. While there we saw the Royal Pavilion which was built by George IV before he became king. We weren’t allowed to take pictures inside, but it was outstanding!!!! Everything was so detailed and extravagant. After touring the Pavilion we went down to the beach, which had rocks instead of sand.

A few of the thousands of bicycles.

Another Shih Tzu.
