London Adventures: Wednesday, June 17

Tea at Polly's with our guide, David StubbsThe treats at Polly's!A windy day at StonehengeAnyone for Bath?Oldest pub in LayCock after dinner


Today we had a guided tour through the south of England with a wonderful guide that has become our friend, David Stubbs. He took us to Polly's Tea House in Marlborough where we had scones and hot chocolate. The countryside was green and lush and we looked for "crop circles" along our way to Stonehenge. Just before visiting the Roman baths in "Bath" we had a "pasty" for lunch, a pocket meat pie that you eat in your hands. Then we visited "Pride and Prejudice" country, the little town of Laycock, that looks just like it did 200 years ago. This is where alot of the PBS version of the movie was filmed. It was charming! We had dinner at a local pub there---the best place to find great food at reasonable prices. It was such a wonderful day!
