  1. Good morning! Though the library is nearly impossible to pull oneself away from, as the house is still light of company I think I'll wander the gallery for a while and study the Darcy countenance, past and present, while I might do so alone. Then, if the day is fine, I'm taking "the accustomed circuit" round the grounds (past the river and into the woods). If it rains I'll rejoin you the library. One could almost wish for rain...

  2. The library and the kitchen! Maybe I can find a cream puff... :P

  3. I would like to visit the music room to listen to Georgiana's excellent musical accomplishments if the library is not available.

  4. I would be in the conservatory with a cocktail.

  5. Definitely the library, but I would also be curious about the intimate family sitting room to see what the family is really like. But being curious, I'd poke my nose into most rooms.

  6. I'd just have to explore the house from the attics all the way down to the kitchen. The private chambers would have me lingering.

  7. I'm headed for the library, after I take a tour of the house.
