		The Towers at Alton

While Melbourne was beating Collingwood at the MCG, I was spending the day at my most anticipated park on the whole UK trip: Alton Towers!

Alton Towers is a beautiful park .. really, Really, REALLY beautiful. I guess the more than 150 photos I took is proof of that! Just walking around this park is really uplifting .. with the spectacular castle, and beautiful gardens all around. And of course some of the coasters really are amazing.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the photos:
