It was the nicest and most quaint seaside town we have visited on the trip. The highlight was the famous Brighton Pier which made you felt you had gone back in time. You could just imagine the Victorians walking along with their bowler hats and parasols.
But the thing that took our breath away was the Royal Pavillion, that was built by King George the 4th as his holiday home. Even Jess who has seen lots of Palaces and Castles by now said that it was one of the most breathtaking inside that she has seen.
We were not supposed to take photo's of the inside but I did sneak one when nobody was watching. This is only the music room, the large dining room had even a more amazing chandelier and other decor but there was so many staff there I couldn't sneak a photo, but this one will give you an idea of the granduer.

Wow you were game taking a photo inside, lucky for you no Henry 8th around......or it cld be a beheaded Tony.....gosh you are having fun, while we slog away at Oracle....I really liked Brighton also when I went there many many years ago. Continue to enjoy your trip because it will be over before you know it, then I guess that 'travel bug' will set in and you will want to do it all over again I know I would. Regards Irene

Hey Tony, looks like you're having a great time. I'm enjoying your blog. Bet you can't wait to get back to the office!! Your plant's still alive (thanks Rafael) but Elmo has been feeling neglected and is threatening to run away. -Regan.
Oh how beautiful !!!!!
Talk about postcard perfect !!
Pity it needs a certain lack of sun and lots of drizzle to make it soo beautiful.Thats a big compensation I guess.
We thought we had been to Brighton but looking at the photos we have decided that we must have missed out.
Wonderful photos...see you soon love terry and jo
