Mystery Castle

I visited the Castle of Mystery mentioned in your book. The castle was excellent and I saw the woman it was built for by her father eons ago. She doesn't lead all the tours now; she's in her 60s but looks very trim and hearty. The castle is definitely worth a second visit in the future.
