Snails?!

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

Bourton on the Water

August 18, 2015

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
