Downton Exhibition Day!

Today we headed to West Palm Beach to see the Downton Abbey Exhibition.  The contents were absolutely amazing!  If you are a fan and this come anywhere close to you, you need to check it out. After an introductory video we entered a room that gave details about each cast member as well as the overall story line with notes about how each cast member's role supported that story line.
The Dowager Countess has a special display (top right) with a video that told about her role and contained some of her more humorous lines.
Most of the downstairs sets had been moved to this exhibition, as you can see from the kitchen set depicted on the left.  The dining room table was set and ready for the family to gather for an evening meal.
There were many, many of the original dresses and other clothes included such as both of Mary and Edith's wedding gowns as well as what Mrs Hughes and Mr Carson wore for their wedding (Bottom left). 
At the end was a final video where four cast members talked and said good bye.  We spent over 1 1/2 hours viewing the entire exhibit, and we were so engrossed in it that at the end,  neither of us could believe we had been in there for that long.

 Later we drove to our hotel and after checking in, headed to the beach.  While it was cloudy, we could not pass up walking along the shore, smelling that wonderful sea air, and listening to the waves crash.

Now to get packed up so we're ready for our flight home tomorrow.  Its been a nice trip, but a little short...
