We had breakfast at the Hotel again and talked through our plan for the day. Andrew and I packed up our things because we were heading back to London on a 5pm Bus from Bristol so we wouldn't be back. Anne and Richard were staying one more night here because they had to return the rental car on Monday morning. First stop today was Castle Combe which was probably my favourite little village we visited over the weekend. Simply stunning! It has been called 'T...

We had some breakfast at the Hotel before setting off on another day of exploration. We had discussed a rough plan of attack and Andrew had it pretty sorted so he was our navigator once again. We travelled North to Barnsley and discovered that there was a village festival happening but it was going to cost £8 each to get in so we gave this a miss and continued on to Bibury. It was time for a coffee so when we spotted 'The Catherine Wheel' pub as we were com...

Andrew and I headed off to Hammersmith station at about 8 o'clock this morning to catch the Picadilly Line tube to Victoria Station, where we had to catch our bus to Bristol. Our bus was departing at 9:30am so we allowed plenty of time because neither us had ever been to Victoria Bus Station. When we got there passengers had just started hopping on the bus so it was perfect timing and we got a seat right at the front of the bus. We were off for another weeke...

After breakfast we all set off in the van- Desiree, Bert, Kit, Sjoerd, Richard, Anne, Andrew and I. We headed to Zeeland on the A29 for an interesting drive through a lot of farmland farming, sheep, cattle and then more horticulture and orchards. We had to stop on the highway for a bridge lifting up to let the boats through on Hollands Deep River, then over a very long bridge to Zierikzee. We drove around there, through the very narrow streets then Bert stoppe...

We got up at about 9am and after showering we headed downstairs for some Breakfast. We are staying on the third level in a loft Bedroom which Kit has so kindly given up for us. We both slept pretty well although I always find it a tad hard to fall asleep when I am in a foreign house with sounds I'm not used to. I'm sure tonight and tomorrow will be better! We are definitely being very well looked after and it is so nice to be staying with a Dutch family becau...
