It's been a busy weekend for me one way or another. On the way up to visit my daughter for a few days Grumpy's (nearly-famous) Mystery Tours stopped off at Stratford-upon-Avon for a little sightseeing trip.

Stratford is a picture basking in the Spring sunshine. The Bard was apparently born in this house.


This is one end of the Stratford canal set in a beautiful park. You can travel by water to Birmingham, Liverpool, York or London from here. The signpost tells you how far it is & how many locks involved.



Or you can go through this lock into the River Avon.





This is the river. Delightful.



I can recommend it. The prices are not as bad as I expected either.

went there only last month. Simmilar weather to. Very nice pictures Doug:)

What! No aeroplanes?

Only kidding, nice pictures, I'll have to go there one day...

Beautiful photos Doug, any yup that is where young Will was born. His father was a rather important local businessman (glove maker), and so his birth is registered in the parish church along with his address

the most exciting thing we saw had to be a guy having a heart attack in some italian restaurant. lol. He was ok in the end after the medics got to him.

Thanks. Glad you like 'em.

What! No aeroplanes?

I thought it would make a change from the usual aeroplanes. Grumpy's Tours caters for all tastes. Well, almost all tastes. We draw the line at some things. You never know for certain where you'll end up but we're a respectable outfit. Prices are very reasonable too.

Thanks Doug...Wonderful scenery and shots

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

A canoe, a tent and a river....*drool*

Kilroy!

Kilroy!

He's actually Mr. Chad, the British version of Kilroy.

Again Doug, great shots from your side of the world.......a nice retreat from "all" wings and things.....you beat me to it......I had plans to do the same thing next week after my time on the water......going for the weekend cruise this Friday....

...of course, there's also going to be a few shots coming from the Museum of Flight in Seattle..... ......some things just have to be done......

Very Nice Doug!
Thanks for sharing and congrats once again!  ;)

Lovely old England. I miss it up here in Scotland...

That lock seems to be quite the novelty.
