When you arrive at the base of the castle, it has disappeared of course into the forest of trees that rise above your head. From the base there are two ways to ascend- either the hot paved road- or the enchanted dirt path in the forest which we of course chose. As we climbed- it didn't take long and my knee-caps began to hurt- of course I didn't complain- but then they really started to pierce with pain. I must have reached down and winced cause Carol asked, "Are you ok honey?" at which point I heaved a mighty sigh and said with great assuredness, "Yes Carol- I am ok.....its just an old HOLY STAIRS injury coming back to haunt me is all....you know some people (Dale) have old football injuries but others of us have have aches and pains obtained from crawling up Pontius Pilates stairs on our knees...." At least she thinks I'm pretty funny----
