Rocky Road to Shakespeare

We took our first little day trip out into the London Country side. How lovely! 

 What a lucky shot right? We were all traveling by bus today and out the window I saw these sheep. Had to have a picture. Now I fully understand the meaning of "rolling hills". There was green, yellow, blue, and random old buildings as far as the eye could see. We visited a little town called Chipping Norton, and what a hustle and bustle for such a little and insignificant town.

Back on the bus, we drove to find the Anne Hathaway house. It was so quaint I LOVED it. Major through back to history of Architecture. . .

 Luckily it was one of the most brilliant and sunny days we have had! Actually it was the only nice day we had had. 

Going along with the journey of Shakespeare, we visited both his birthplace and his grave in the Trinity Church. They were both fun little sorts of places. But really it is the history and the ancientness of them that made them so great. 

We were then set free to wander the town of Stratford-Upon-Avon to try and find dinner. Kate and I decided to share a mustard sandwich. . . what a strange sensation! The mustard was SO strong it stung my nose!

After buying magnum bars we all went to the Royal Shakespeare Company to watch Twelfth Night. 

What     a          day      .       .              .                 .                 .                                      !
