Monday Sept 13 - Back on the Road

Today is the second of our scheduled bus excursions.  Windsor Castle is the first stop, then onto Bath and finally Stonehenge.

We were at Windsor when they changed the guard.  Impressive structure, but one of  many buildings here in England that are.

Bath is a place we could come back to.  The ancient baths are interesting, but the real prize is the city itself.  The golden stone facades, the interesting shops on the streets and the surrounding countryside are fabulous.  Didn't see Nicholas Cage, but according to our guide, he lives here.

Stonehenge is as we expected.  Out in the country surrounded by fields.  Our guide told us how the stones were hauled to the site, but I'm still not sure how the stones, weighing many tons, were assembled.  Will have to check the Google for that.
