I have just been to Stratford-upon-Avon for the day. Karrie came up from London and we went on the train for the day. We were planning to stay the night, but it turns out the hostel is an hours walk out of town! Pretty useless for a backpackers. Anyway we ended up just staying for the day and looking around. We went to Shakespeares Birthplace, Shakespeares Grave- which I was a little disappointed with.. the Holy Trinity Church which is where the grave is has kinda capitalised on the fact that Shakespeare is there... charging to get in and having a souvenir shop in the corner. Kinda Cheesy. But I am glad I went, was worth it. I have although developed a souvenir addiction. I am slightly obsessed!! Anyways.. I have brought a bus ticket for around Europe. I can pick up the bus whenever and wherever I want to and carry on around for 9 stops. So I think I am going to start in Prague and go through Vienna, Munich, Venice, Rome, Florence, Nice, Barcelona and finish in Madrid. I think I'll hang out in Spain for a little while longer and then maybe pop over to Morocco for awhile. Well that is the plan at the moment, whether or not I stick to the plan is another story!!! Here are some pics from Stratford. Top is of the Holy Trinity Church and the bottom two are of Shakespeares Birthplace.
