storming the castle...

monday was our trip to the country...

a "quick" stop at Oxford...
 
not sure i like the pace of the "tour"...c'est la vie!  after our visit to Oxford we made our way to stratford...a visit to shakespeare's birthplace and childhood home...really interesting...

on the way out of the house there was an actor doing a monologue...our ginny stopped to give him a audience...way to support the local art scene sweets!


after stratford and lunch we hit the road again...off to warwick castle...a beautiful day and great time (catching up with joce on the bus ride)...

 we are all trying to stay out of trouble....but with this pack it is really hard to do...





 the peacock garden was a favorite stop...something so amazing about sitting in a "flock" of peacocks...here is one of the 40 pics I took of them...
 the afternoon comes to an end and we are on our way back to the big city...
we land at the hotel after six and joce and kirsten hit the street...a short tube ride takes us to the west end and we will rock you (a musical made of Queen's music-that is Queen not "the Queen")...GREAT FUN!
