Hampton Court palace
During my trip to my Sons we spent a day at Hampton Court, it was a very hot day but inside the palace was nice and cool, we joined Henry celebrating his marriage to Catherrine Parr the actors were so good and made it all a lot of fun, don't you think King Henry looks well? it's well worth the entry fee the gardens are lovely and there is so much to see.

Very nice Joan, how old would Henry have been then, do you have any idea?
He looks quite a youngish man there and in his prime.

Not sure how old he was meant to be but Catherine Parr was his last wife and she out lived him.

He certainly looks very benevolent. That's a great day out Jojo and the weather looked perfect to round things off.
He was 52 and died three years later. I think as much from an unhealthy lifestyle as anything else. He enjoyed himself hugely though.
