Stratford












Sorry for the delayed pictures. Due to my limited time here I only have a brief amount of time to post. We went to Stratford where Shakespeare lived. We saw his birthplace, and the entire city is a shrine to him. We also stayed at a very cute bed and breakfast which is pictured above, and we had our first complete English breakfast complete with tomatoes and mushrooms. We then went to a museum on Harry Potter called the Creaky Cauldron. It was anti-climatic because it wasn’t a portal to the wizarding world, but it was still fun. I was sorted into slytherin so watch out! We also went to Warwick Castle and saw jousting, trebuchet, and a bird show. Think Disneyland gone castle. There I saw an old high school buddy David Moon. It was a small world.

Is that warwick castle I see?? Wasn't that place crazy with all the candle wax people. We had a good time there. Hahah. I am so glad you made it into the creaky cauldron. Only a few of us went but we loved it. DId you buy any candy? Some of the rooms are kind of creepy huh?? Did you do the potions riddle? Yes it is sad that there were no portkey's around to get into the wizarding world but keep looking. Perhaps one day we'll find one.
