Our second day in Stratford was spent mostly in looking around the town and a brief jaunt to Warwick to view the castle there.
The Victoria Spa Lodge:
First stop was Rother Market. There was a farmer's market Saturday morning where we stocked up on local goods: herb brie, apples, and beer for our picnic later.
Shout for Trout!
Next we walked around town. This is Greg and I in front of Shakespeare's birthplace.
Greg with the Busking Bard:
Gargoyles on the old chapel church:
Nash's House & New Place, where Shakespeare died:
More pictures from Holy Trinity Church:
What is a cream tea? (Mom, I took this one for you):
A pot of tea with Shakespeare's birthplace in the background:
My tea leaves--I think it is a dragon (glad it is not a Grim):
Warwick Castle--we arrived too late to enter, so we got some pictures outside, and I got some good practice driving English around the countryside:
It was another fine day, full of new sights and experiences.
