• Windsor and Etan

    August 9 in England ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    On Sunday, we needed to return to London in time for me to DJ at an afternoon milonga at 4 pm. Since we still had half a day, we decided to stop by on our way from Oxford at Windsor and nearby Eton, since it again would give us a sufficiently different experience, and of course, if had a VoiceMap to guide our explorations.

    We particularly wanted to see Windsor and Etan because after watching TV series The Crown, we wanted to see Windsor which has been a royal residence for centuries and continues to be the home of the royal family. And Eton is the boarding school for boys 13-18 years old, and it educated many famous people, as well as royal princes. It was really beautiful and interesting.

    We then drove to London, had a quick Vietnamese lunch and I DJed at the small but iconic (been around for 15 years) milonga. We were surprised to see there a tango couple from Salt Lake City that we know well. They were on vacation in London and it was a great coincidence! We then had fun drinks with the milonga organizer/teacher, and a few other people, and then we went to another milonga, which was ok, not great.

    We decided to stay in a small town outside of Cambridge, called Saffron Walden and we drove there late after the milonga. A long, but very fun day!
