Warwick Castle and

 Stratford-upon-Avon  

 
 Here are a few photos from our weekend trip to the land of who else... William Shakespeare.
Stratford-upon-Avon is the home of Shakespeare and Warwick is just up the road.  We chose to go before the very busy tourist season.  Enjoy.
 
 
 
 
 
Anne Hathaway's (Shakespeare's wife) home.  He lived here later in life. Cool thatched roof cottage!
 
 
Shakespeare's childhood home, right smack in the middle of Stratford.  He owned this later in life after he was a rich man from his playwriting, given to him by his father.

Susan finds her way to the Teddy Bear Museum. On display inside is the original Fozzie Bear from the Muppet Show.
 
 
Warwick Castle is one of the coolest castles we have visited in the UK.
 
 
Someone is directed to spend time in the gallows.
 
 
 
 
 
 
The castle is owned by Madame Tussauds who have done a great job of decorating rooms as they were in eras of the past.

Warwick sits on the Avon river.  Here it runs by the castle...beautiful!
