Jan 6th-9th, First days at Harlaxton Manor


Our adventure begins! After some hiccups at Lambert Airport we finally arrived at Harlaxton Manor. It is spectacular! Lots of greetings and meetings. Friendly faculty and staff have made the beginning of this trip a memorable start.



The view out our room window!



Shake your Putti!!!

There are lots of Cherubs floating around the manor. This room (referred to as the Gold Room) is decorated in the Baroque Rococo style. The house is fascinating as it is a collage of architectural styles.

  4. I agree with Brogan. Is that a Ghost at the top of the stairs?
