Hardly a palace, but instead an outdoor bookstand in Havana, Cuba. It was interesting to see the selection of books, magazines and pamphlets.

Cupolas and domes and spires and battlements are all lovely, but my eye is often drawn to the gentle humour and quiet artistry of ornaments. Kraków Wawel Palace and Warsaw.

Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany to me is the definitive of childhood fairytales and fantasy. Disneyland used this castle as a model for their castle. What kid doesn't love Disneyland!?

They're changing guard at Buckingham Palace -
Christopher Robin went down with Alice.
Alice is marrying one of the guard.
"A soldier's life is terrible hard,"
                                                                    Says Alice.
