Windsor itself
As none of us had been to Windsor before, we decided we needed to explore as much as possible. Windsor certainly didn’t disappoint! There were LOTS of Christmas markets, and the people manning the stalls were wonderfully chatty—which suited me perfectly, as I’m also incredibly chatty myself! 😊
