Stratford-upon-Avon and Bath

Yes I went to Stratford-upon-Avon and Bath during reading week.

Stratford-upon-Avon

Thank you Vincent for suggestingthis place because going to Shakespeare's hometown had never come across my mind. What a shame it would be if I never visited the hometown of arguably the greatest playwright ever born to this world while I am only 2 hrs away by train?

Too bad we couldn't catch a performance of the famous Royal Shakespeare Company. The season hasn't started...

And how I wish I have read more Shakespeare!!

his birthplace.

his grave.

Bath

What a Georgian city! I won't say it's captivating. It's rather spectacular though. I like the old Georgian style but not the brownish yellow stones. Everyone goes there to see the roman bath spa. I have to say one thing, d泉水好飲過KV 0個d！！！Anyway, it tasted like rust.

Also visited the Jane Austen centre. It was quite small. Too bad didn't have 'tea with Mr. Darcy' coz I wanna save my appetite for the dinner at Sally Lunn. Anyway, I enjoyed the small museum.

The trip ended with a dinner at Sally Lunn, the oldest house in Bath according to records. Tried the Bath bun and the traditional British dinner. The special thing about it was that the steak was served on a piece of bread. Food was served this way before plates were invented. Thank you my dearest cousin for suggesting this.
