Hearst Castle

Monday and off to Hearst Castle, an amazing pile sat on a hill above San Simeon, this lovely picture was one of those taken against a green back drop and me then super-imposed against an image of the famous Nuptune pool, why they don't actually take you against the real one I'll never know, unless it's to make sure the sun always shines in California! This place is an strange mixture of old artifacts from all over the world - some of the decorations on this pool are actual roman sculptures! Couldn't decide whether is was fantastic or disgusting....
