Stonehenge and Dartford/British Open

After the fabulous day yesterday in Salisbury we picked up our rental car (Renault, feels funny but good since my mom drove one while I was growing up).





Kyle drove us over to Stonehenge for a visit. We got a beautiful day unlike the Effiel Tower day ;) Stonehenge is amazing, a truly extraordinary engineering feat!


















Then I got the idea we should see another henge so Kyle drove us over the Avebury, tiny roads, he was not happy but he did a fabulous job! Not nearly as stupendous as stonehenge but worth the visit. We strolled around and visited the local cathedral and had lunch at the pub. I had a 'jacket' (potato) beans and cheese.











Then we got on the road to come over to Dartford. We are spending the night here so we can go to the British open first thing in the morning. the tournament started today and we are supposed to get good weather tomorrow too. I am not taking any chances, I am bringing my rain jacket this time! No cameras allowed at the tournament so probably no blog tomorrow...but I will enjoy and be sure to take plenty of mental pictures.

We had dinner at a Thai and Chinese noodle bar tonight, they only had pad Thai for noodles at the noodle bar, go figure. There was also a carnival going on in town so we strolled through the fun, the grounds had beautiful flower gardens.





I learned that the British don't sell cotton candy at their carnivals they have candy floss...interesting.

Also, before I close this post wanted to say happy birthday to my dad! Sorry we aren't closer to celebrate but my pups will fill in for us and we can celebrate when we get back. Love you very much.
