Merry Old England Part 1

  A few weeks ago Daryl and I went to England with my sister Nellie, her husband Paul, and our niece Ashlyn.  We flew into London and rented a car.  We drove to Bath first off.  We saw the Roman Baths there and stayed right in the middle of the city pretty much.  We also drove around the Cotswold area and saw many quintessential English villages.  Daryl and I were surprised about how accurate Shaun the Sheep is.  We saw a lot of sheep, some pigs, and a car that just looked like Farmer's.  We also stayed in Oxford and toured around there and saw where a lot of Harry Potter scenes were filmed.  Of course we stopped by Stone Henge as well.

The Roman Baths.  Apparently since the water is open to the sunlight now this causes the yucky green algae to grow.

The Salisbury Cathedral

We saw a lot of cute little stands like this operating on the honor system selling honeys, jams, and whatnots.

One of the little churches we visited had a little bookcase with books and dvds for sale and we found Scrubs.
