                <description><![CDATA[I feel very lucky to live close to The Foredown Tower,  which is home to one of only two operational camera obscuras in South East England. A camera obscura is an unusual optical device that is used to observe the landscape, sun and sky.<br><br>The building, an Edwardian water tower built in 1909, is of architectural interest and has been converted with considerable care to preserve many original features.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Really worth a visit!  The Royal Pavilion is in the centre of Brighton set in beautiful gardens. Built for The Prince Regent, the architect Nash turned in into the Indian style building that exists today from 1815-23.  The entrance price includes an audio guide to tell the story of the lavish interiors and the parties that took place!  The banqueting room is extraordinary!  Children can take part in the 'Dragon Quest' during this summer holiday too and 'tame the dragons' - lots of fun for the family.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Just ten minutes by bus from the centre of Brighton and you're in the middle of some incredible countryside.  Take the bus to Devil's Dyke (ignore the beefeater style pub by the bus stop) and take a walk round the top of the dyke, or (armed with a map) go exploring. There are some great country pubs and villages to be found -- great for dog walking, great for kite flying or paragliding and a real breath of fresh air if you want to blow a hangover away!]]></description>
