We spent the day today in The Cotswolds. It is an area of England with cute little villages and thatched roof cottages. We saw Anne Hathaway's cottage (Shakespear's wife). Cute cottage, beautiful gardens and orchards and tasty fruit. (How would I know that it was tasty, you might ask? Well, it was going to fall on the ground and rot anyway.)
We went to a weekly market in Stow on the Wold (hey, I couldn't make these names up! I did mention that we stayed in Studly last night, didn't I?) After the market and Tea, we visited Burton on Water, the "Venice of the Cotswolds". We finished the day in Chipping Campden. If you looked up "CUTE" in the encyclopedia you would see Chipping Campden's picture.
Tonight we drove to Bristol, England and we will see Bristol. Bath, and a few other places tomorrow. The countdown is on to pack it all in before we head for London. After that Carrie has to go home.
Tom arrives the day after tomorrow. I am really looking forward to that. My adventures have just begun (but I am going to buy a good map everyplace we go!).
