January 3 Heading Home

 All good things must come to an end so we headed home. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed for 4 hours due to mechanical issues with two planes but we finally got our last glimpses of  England at sunset. It was a fabulas trip that we will always treasure.





January 2 Clarkson' s Farm and Pub

 While we had car we decided to visit the site of one of our favorite TV shows Clarksons Farm.

January 2, 2026 Bibury



After resting New Years Day we decided to take a drive in Shannon and Abes rental car to the famous Cotswolds area of England. Fisherman Abe had found a Trout farm that he wanted to check out that happened to be in the famous village of  Bibury. Henry Ford was so taken with the beauty that he tried to buy the whole town and move it to Michigan, thankfully he failed.



Driving on the left is daunting enough but many roads are very narrow.






Enjoying some hot chocolate on a cold day.

















See the blue trout?









A little snow the night before.
