Thursday 5th July’s Grateful List

Today I am grateful for traveling to Stratford upon Avon.

We travelled out to Stratford Upon Avon in a hire car. Again I am grateful for Google Maps. Once again David and I were together in a car navigating to a different place and we had not one argument!

Stratford-upon-Avon is a a medieval market town in England’s West Midlands, and is the 16th-century birthplace of William Shakespeare. Possibly the most famous writer in the English language, Shakespeare is known for his sonnets and plays such as ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and ‘Hamlet’. The Royal Shakespeare Company performs his plays in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and adjacent Swan Theatre on the banks of the River Avon.

We saw his birthplace, home and we were lucky enough to attend Romeo and Juliet at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

The photos in order are The village of Stratford upon Avon, The Family, The garden at the site of Shakespeare’s home, The Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

The production we saw of Romeo and Juliet was modern and amazing!
