Woke up the next day to the freshest air and nicest, cool weather and this view. There was silence all around in the countryside except for the occassional chirping of birds.
Took the bus down to Stratford, the place where Shakespeare was born and grew up in.
I swear, Stratford has one of the most gorgeous sceneries around. It is such a happy family place, perhaps due to the fact that it was a Sunday on that day. Everywhere you see adults and grandparents with happy, squealing excited little kids and couples walking their dogs...it has such a relaxed, laidback atmosphere. Plus the weather was really cool and lovely. We sat down on the grass underneath a tree, facing the river and had their famed fish and chips.
Fantastic view + yummy food. What more can we ask for?:)
Later on we went to the mini flea market/ fair they were having on that day.
You might not be able to tell from the pictures, but the toffees were
freaking yummy
Explored the streets of Stratford
Hahahaha I LOOOOOOOOVE this ice-cream truck so much!
Up ahead, we saw Shakespeare's house. Unfortunately, time was running short - we had to catch the last bus back to London. In addition, the entrance fee into his house was rather pricey so we decided not to go in.
This statue was in made in honour of one of Shakespeare's works. What was it, Twelfth Night? I'm not sure, anybody studied Literature?
So anyway, left around 5pm to catch the bus back to Warwick and then take the last bus at around 7pm back to London. And hence ends Day 2.
