We left Amersham and the London area with fond memories of people, places and adventure. We aren’t planning on visiting this part of Europe again, so some things are difficult to say goodbye to.
With a short travel day planned, (three driving hours), Tour Guide Cindy made plans to use the GPS and take us on a small tour of the Cotswolds.
The Cotswolds are in southwest England and are in the hill county, famous for its yellow Cotswolds stone which everything is made of, and thatched roof homes , which you still see on homes today.
The other main industry was sheep herding. You still see wagons used by herders in the country.
The sheep are name Cotswolds Lions and are famous for their wool and delicious chops😳
The area is quite lovely, with small narrow roads leading to small villages.
Lavender fields in Snowshill.
Snowshill is a lovely village.
Broadway.
Stanton.
Finally, our new home, French Lynch. It’s a small village in the middle of The Cotswolds where we will visit neighboring areas, including Bath.
Cute place, very quiet and English. Summer is back in England. It was 92 yesterday with 80% humidity😳 Massive lightning and rain storm last night, knocked out all the power for three hours😳 More heat and humidity forecast for the next several days. No AC in jolly old England, so keep up the stiff upper lip and carry on Chaps🧐
