Stratford-upon-Avon

Stratford-upon-Avon, a great way to end the trip! This place was beautiful town that was much smaller than London, it actual felt smaller than Fayetteville. I found myself at multiple times just slowly wondering around later in the afternoon, only passing a few people here and there. The town was had similarities to London like it age and the large history found in town. This is the town were William Shakespeare lived and is put to rest, being able to walk and visit the places that he lived was a very unique experience. This was an amazing way to end the trip, it was very calming and beautiful location and a good way to wind down. I like Stratford more because it reminded of my home town where I grew up, only a few cars on the road, you can walk anywhere in town, and the calmness. London is a very busy city, buss always about people everywhere and always a sense of directional flow. I did enjoy the flow of London and how navigating the tubes was a large part of the transportation but there always seemed to be a little sense of unease. With the thought of missing a tube, using the wrong tube, getting lost, or just trying to navigate always seemed like it was something you had to think about in London. But in Stratford I was able to just pick a direction and mindlessly wonder with very little fear of getting lost or stuck somewhere. This trip was amazing and hopefully it has left a lasting impression on me, I loved nearly every part of the trip and I am looking forward to the next time I travel to a new location. I took 1000s of photos during this trip and will be creating a video compilation of the trip, keep an eye out for that in the next week or two I will make another post here with the link to it. I did not get to the photos from Strafford-upon-Avon yet, but they will be included in the video. I hope everyone enjoyed the photos that I took! I very much enjoyed the company of everyone that was a part of this experience and thanks everyone for making it so AMAZING!!!
