Mini-vacation

We have taken a short holiday to see Shakespeare's home town!  Here we are at the house he grew up in.  His father was a glove maker, and he made and sold gloves from the house. 


We also went to the church where he was baptized and buried.  We really enjoyed the posters at the church that gave the history of the church during Shakespeare's time.  Did you realize that his parents would have been living during the Catholic Bloody Mary, and he was born during the Protestant age?  Think about how one's theology might be confused. 


In the evening, we ate at the pub attached to our hotel.  LG enjoyed eating my peas and drinking her milk.  :)
