Stratford upon Avon and Julia's Birthday

For Julia's birthday we all went to the movies in Stratford upon Avon. We went to "The Croods" which was a great movie with a caveman family moved on by an erupting volcano. It was a typical family event with popcorn and lollies.

Sue was more interested in the streets of Stratford. We of course checked out the birthplace of William Shakespeare before venturing down the other streets. The central area has been kept as it was in the past. 

The drive back to Chester (home) was a slow one. The GPS took us off the motorway just north of Birmingham which suggests congestion on the M6 near Manchester. I think we were all pleased to be home by the end.

One thing we had been really surprised by, is the amount of rubbish just left on the roadsides in England. It seems that  the nearer you get to the center of the country the worse it gets. I suppose the Welsh have too much pride in their land to let this happen. We've travelled in many countries now and have never seen anything so obvious and ignored.
