Walking walking.....

Sunday was a slow start but once we got going it was a great adventure. We headed out to explore some Cotwolds villages and decided to head for the Roman Villa at Chedworth however a wee GPS operator error took us to Chedworth itself (very pretty) and when I asked for walking directions I forgot the vital'how long' so we were treated to a lovely English countryside walk through fields and bush before we got there. It was so worth it...what a awesome piece of history. The mosaics were special and I learnt that the Romans had central heating which given how cold it is in England was an idea that was very practical. We then went on to Bourton on Water which is a kind of pretty but very touristy town and did a little shopping (nice perfumery) and of course Bruce bought some model trains. They have a very clever Model Village of the village all made out of Cotswolds stone.



Today was a BIG day...Legoland. Was a bit worried about the weather as we have pre bought tickets but was OK...overcast all day and I Think a bit warmer than yesterday. It's a good theme park especially I think for kids Michaels age. He loved The Dragon roller coaster and used sone if his hard earned money to buy some Lego and a Viking sword and shield. The Lego was no cheaper than NZ .and really only affordable cause the exchange rate is so good. then a quick run into Windsor to see the castle which is spectacular and a italian dinner...not our cheapest meal but awesome. Nice to be home for a decent sleep. Have to hand the I Pad to Bruce as he wants to download photos (which does mean I have some for the blog).
