The Cotswolds




We arrived in England and are having a great time. We've been staying with Caroline's cousins in Fairford in the Cotswolds, a beautiful area known for its rolling hills, stone houses, walled-in fields, quaint villages, church spires, pubs, narrow roads, medieval forests and movie stars such as Kate Moss and Elizabeth Hurley who happen to live down the road from us!

Today we had a drive around the countryside, ate lunch in a small-town pub, and checked out a few old churches. Tomorrow we're off to Oxford for some site-seeing and to meet a few friends from Toronto. On Saturday we ride to London for the remainder of our time in England.

Now that we're here, the travel bug is really taking hold of us, and we're excited to carry on. More soon -- and maybe some pictures -- when we get to London.
