Whitstable and Hever Castle, Kent UK

There are the rare occasions when London's weather brings enough sunshine to stop us moaning about how we miss the Australian climate, and even provides us with enough incentive to set up the BBQ in our backyard.
The past couple of weeks have been sufficiently sun-kissed and we felt the urge to head out to a number of day trips in Kent. Our first trip was to Whitstable, one of the UK's oyster capitals. The second trip was to Hever Castle to watch a reenactment of a medieval joust - a fun family day out at the childhood home of Anne Boleyn - wife of Henry VIII and mother of Elizabeth I.
