So Far...

Howdy,

We are having a blast.....

Today we having an easy day, back into Swanbourne then onto Milton Keynes and then to potter around and try and pack for tomorrow. Tomorrow we move up to the Peak District for 3 nights, and not sure if we will have Internet so thought we better bring you all up to date of what we have been up too.

Monday: This was our last day with Ron & Shirley, we visited Charlton-on-Otmoor then bid farewell to our new family. From here we drove  into Windsor and enjoyed a trip on the Hop on Hop off bus, we were lucky to have had such a glorious day. Dinner was at The Red Lion, Stratton Audley.

Tuesday: An extremely foggy start to the day so I was little scared to drive on the motor ways as the drivers over here are a little bit CRAZY!!! so we visited little villages all through the Cotswolds. We had morning tea at Doddington after finding a fabulous antique store. I was able to find the village our Pommie friends are from, and Pauline was very impressed with my find :) .

Wednesday: With fog and all I was confident enough to tackle the main roads... We headed down to Stonehenge, Woodhenge, Exeter, and the main attraction of the and the reason for such a long drive, Port Isaac. The Doc wasn't in he will be back next month. We enjoyed a Cornish pasty and an ice cream, we worth the drive for them. We headed back up through the hustle and bustle of Bristol then onto Bath (yes it was dark by now). It was a huge day in the car to cover such an amount of miles but we knew that was going to be the case for this day.

I will upload a photo post this afternoon, as you could imagine there are so many too choose from.

Hope all are groovy
