Avon River
The Avon that Stratford is...on!
Shakespeare's Birthplace
The house of the Bard himself - this was late last year on a day trip with cnc (who got us in on a family ticket!)
Shakespeare's Birthplace (again)
Stratford is a gorgeous little historic town - worth a visit!
On to Stonehenge!
We decided to visit Stonehenge on possibly the coldest day in England! Absolutely froze to death on an open hillside looking at rocks...
Stonehenge
It is kinda cool though...
The Rocks
They still don't know why they were put here!
Drew's favourite rock
A practical impossibility from a builder's point of view!!
Cherry Blossoms
Now on to some warmer weather...spring finally arrived in the UK!!
Beachy Head
A glorious spring day, so we headed to Beachy Head (between Brighton and Eastbourne on the south coast)
Chalk cliffs
Beachy Head is one of our favourite places in England - breathtaking scenery!
Beachy Head contrasts
The colours of the water, chalk cliffs and green green grass...
Parachuter
Such a beautiful day, people were jumping out of planes! Not sure if he was doing the speed limit though...
Brighton Beach
On to hip and happening Brighton...
Brighton Beach
...where the English sun themselves on really uncomfortable rocks! Yes, this is the beach...no sand!!
Brighton Pier
Where you go if you don't want to sit on rocks...
Drew on Brighton Pier
...you sit on deckchairs!! They have these everywhere instead of benches - the English are weird!
Brighton Pier rides
The Pier is basically a huge amusement arcade with fairground rides at the end, including...
The Helter Skelter!!
...I never knew what that Beatles song meant until now!!
Brighton Pavilion
The incredible Brighton Pavilion...feels like you're in India, not a British seaside resort!
