It's been a whiles since I've managed to free up a weekend but I did manage it.

Stratford was superb to see and feel. At the theatre, we watched Two Noble Kinsmen which was atmospheric and romantic.

Enjoy some snaps that I managed to take....

I was determined to photograph Stratford at the best time of the day as far as light was concerned so I'd wake up around 6.30am and catch the blue sky hour which I love.....

Our favourite coffee shop and restaurant was at Mida. We'd sit there for a couple our hours chatting about what we had seen and what we plan to see and also people watch....

Walking around Stratford was the most pleasant experience. Black and white houses with their crooked beams almost seemed like they were about to fall over. I was in heaven here.....

On our way home we decided to miss the ugly motorway and drive through the Cotswolds and stop at Hidcote Manor Gardens. Such and amazing house and the garden was a dream. Every section of this splendid garden gave surprises. So glad I took my camera to document this quaint garden....

We shall return here in spring 2017.....
