The gardens were burning bright. I wished I'd taken a hat. After a while almost everything seemed like a hallucination, a mirage, so I was looking at this elaborate door hidden away at one end of the garden for some time before I realised what exactly I was looking at. Closer inspection revealed it to be the entrance to the upper passageway of the castle bridge a hundred or so feet up, linking the castle to its gardens. The fact that it was locked shut only added to the 'Secret Garden' feel.
