Chocolate Box Cotswolds Continued…

Tuesday, 17 May 2011

I took a million pictures of the Cotswolds, even silly things like grass and door knobs looked prettier here! So here is the second part of photos from my trip, on Friday we fulfilled a life-long dream of mine and visited the birthplace of Shakespeare, Stratford-upon-Avon. Luckily we went quite early in the morning so we escaped the majority of the tourist crowds but sadly, Anne Hathaway’s house was heaving so we thought it would be better appreciated from the outside. We bought fresh English strawberries from the market square and wondered about aimlessly for most of the morning, soaking in the atmosphere and visiting the sites. We then headed to the villages of Chipping Camden and Stow-on-the-Wold… I miss it already!
