It was another busy and fun day today. We started the morning at my Mum’s church, then drove to the nearby Cotswolds. We started our drive at the very lovely Burford, went on through Upper Rissington to Bourton on the Water. Bourton on the Water is apparently known as the Venice of the Cotswolds. That may be overstating things a little but it is a picture perfect Cotswold village, full of quaint shops and tea rooms, set on either side of a shallow river.
The river is crossed at intervals by a series of low bridges and fords (a road feature that the young Exiles found a little unusual). We meandered and had a little something to eat before rounding off the trip with a visit to a local attraction that I will leave for Exile #1 to explore more fully.
