Drove down to Stratford Upon Avon today, which is for those that don't know Shakespeare country.  It is full of beautiful old Tudor buildings that are barely structurally sound.  Once again another scorcher, the heat is really obscene! We strolled around the quaint little village and checked out the market in the square then went and checked into our hostel for the night which was only a short drive from the middle of the city.

Our hostel was a beautiful old mansion that had been converted into a youth hostel but they for some reason felt they needed to nail all the windows shut, so I had the most uncomfortable sleep ever, it felt as if it was 30 degrees in our room and there was no way I was getting any sleep! The cold tap was just not cold enough on the showers either. After no sleep we decided to hightail out of there first thing in the morning and head on over to Wales for the day.
