Amazing what you can find if you stop and look. Flashlight catches out dozens of snails partying on the rocks next to the bridge.

Clifton Suspension bridge
The Clifton suspension bridge across the Avon (yes, that Avon) River in Bristol England. The lights at the bottom of the photo are traffic on a highway. Cast iron bridge, +100 years old. Really REALLY high. WOW.

Sunset in Bourton
Dinner included sunset on the Kingsbridge Inn’s patio. We’re practically the last tourists in town. Next: drive home in the dark. D^8

Blood Pudding
…also, blood pudding?! Yum! #dontAsk

Bourton on the Water
Kingsbridge Inn in Bourton-on-the-Water. A lot of the countryside here looks exactly like Pennsylvania… so much in England to love. (Driving on the left, not so much. But the way the traffic ‘works’ here is SO much better than in the states!) #roundaboutConvert

Lower Slaughter
Possible the prettiest village in all of England.
