April 13 - Chatsworth House (1/3)

This was the most impressive and beautiful in terms of the stately homes I’ve chosen to visit. The painted hall is something else in a private home as compared to the Vatican.

April 13 - Chatsworth House 2/3

A perfect example of English Baroque and Italianate architecture built progressively over several centuries. Only dropping some of the highlights of some of the staterooms. I really enjoyed this visit as was well organised. The car park to house was easy access n the food options while not cheap hit the right spot.

Well there was so much beauty to share including a violin hanging on a door and has never been played because it’s a painting!!!! A picture gallery, a sculpture gallery too.

Included some views of garden from the house.

Leaving Canberra, going to Adelaide via Sydney, pity I turned my ipad off, the views into Sydney were some of the clearest I have seen.View attachment 381427View attachment 381428View attachment 381429View attachment 381430View attachment 381430
Looks better than when I flew back yesterday. The pilot decided to do a fly around as it was too windy to land on the first approach. Knew there was a reason I don't like Dash 8s.
And which rally are you off to this week? :rolleyes:

Rally of the Heartland in Burra, S.A.

Next week, Rally Portugal WRC, followed by Rally Asturias, northern Spain a round of the European Historic Championship, then probably a break for a while.
