Stratford Upon Avon - Day 2

What a quaint town this is! We took a boat tour down the river today and saw some beautiful homes. I also saw a red fox, swans, goose, and ducks. As we were walking down the river, we saw a "foot ferry". An old man runs a boat back and forth across the river so people can cross it in the middle of town. The boat was powered by the man cranking a wheel which turned the chains which must have been attached to a paddle wheel under the boat, for propulsion. Then we toured Shakespeare's childhood home before he had to flee to London, his wife's cottage (Ann Hathaway) and his oldest daughters home. We toured the church where he was baptized and buried. Tonight we saw Julius Cesear in the Royal Shakesperean Theater. It was very well done. Bravo. Things we learned today: The origin of: -Sleep tight -For whom the bell tolls -Graveyard shift -Not worth their salt -Got a frog in your throat? Last but not least, I found that I really like Guiness! Especially, Guiness Extra Cold.
