Blenheim Palace

Since getting here we've done shopping and community service stuff but nothing truly "touristy" in any fashion. So today we toured Blenheim Palace- home to Winston Churchill. What a truly amazing place, the estate is huge, no one could possibly see everything in one day. We're planning on going back a few more times and why not...we've got passes that will last us a year!
I had no idea how large this estate is, and it's massive in scale! The Secret Garden and the Rose Garden were my favorites, simply breathtaking examples of gardening at it's finest!
