Stroud, England - in the heart of the Cotswalds

Plane from Copenhagen to train to Stroud, England

Our friends (Olga and Tara) whom we know from LA pre-school New School West - one of the greatest schools in the world!! - Below is their home. They moved to England when we moved to Berkeley and we had not seen them since we moved.
A very exciting site - the trampoline!!!
Tara with one of their 6 guinea pigs.
Olga jumping the horse fence - it's English exercise!
At the public pool I thought it was funny to see this sign - only in England would it say "gentle pulls"...
This is the Red Lion (we think) pub and Inn in Avebury - a place with ancient rocks like Stonehenge but not as tourist-y. Case in point, I had never heard of it.
Here are the rocks - you can walk all along them and touch them etc which you can't do at Stonehenge.

part of the crew....Mark is shooting.
The rocks are situated all around the town - actually it's visa versa. The rocks are placed in a curving pattern with an entrance. The town was built hundreds of years later.

Farwell to Cotswalds and onto London to see other friends.
Thank you Olga and Tara!! xo
