Today I am grateful that David and I explored some little villages in the Cotswolds, Blenheim Palace and the area where Downton Abbey was filmed.
What a wonderful day. We did an Evans Evans Bus Trip . Somebody else did the driving, thinking and planning for our day. If you come to London I would recommend a Day trip like this. It was very relaxing and informative.
Blenheim Palace is home to the 12th Duke of Marlborough and his family, is the birth place of Winston Churchill and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The gardens and roses were truly spectacular.
The little village in the Cotswolds we visited were lovely. We visited Arlington Row in Bibury and Bourton-on-the-Water on the Water.
I knew we were doing a trip out to this area before we arrived in London. I had never watched an episode of Downton Abbey. I managed to watch the whole first season on the plane trip here. I am now hooked! This is the church from the series.
Our guide for the day was very informative and lovely. We had a very gentle and enjoyable day.
Until next time
