I've taken pictures, and hopefully some of them will be good.
And we were putting together a couple books.
And it was great.
I can't wait to go back.
I just need to figure out how to afford it next year.
don't.
Actually, I didn't pick up anything on that.
but i did pick up on the time periods i picked up on the kings and knights a lot of times um arthur is probably modeled after king i want to say edmund but i'm not sure i've got it right it's one of the early um one of the early kings that the first one who really alfonso maybe it is um one of the first ones who unified the english
kingdoms into one kingdom and that's i say english because i'm talking only england not wales not ireland not scotland just um i'm not even sure if cornwall was included in that just the english part um so they think they know the historic models but glastonbury for example ancient ancient um um church it or cathedral it has the oldest cathedral or the oldest
church in england was there and it's where the the tour and the the uh the abbey it's what it is not a cathedral um supposedly have the thorns from the thorn trees planted from the crown of christ that joseph of army maya brought over okay shortly after i mean these are the legends
right the monks needed money in early middle ages and
And so one of them had this dream that they needed to go dig in this certain spot.
So they did.
And they found two coffins in pristine condition, one labeled very clearly Arthur and one Guinevere.
Perfectly labeled, pristine.
And of course, then it became a pilgrim site.
In fact, I stayed in the hotel that was built for pilgrims in Glastonbury in 1400.
52 now you get a little suspicious with the convenience of such something so clearly labeled and I think I don't remember if there were bones in it that were in good shape or what one of the Plantagenet kings took it away a few hundred years later didn't want the competition and nobody knows what happened to them but I think Arthur is a legend based on historical people
Exactly.
And also the battle with the Romans.
