Stratford-upon-Avon

On Friday Oberlin-in-London took us to Stratford-upon-Avon, William Shakespeare's hometown! It was so amazing. We took a coach through the lovely English countryside and had the afternoon to explore before seeing the Tempest performed by the Royal Shakespeare Company. Here are some pics of the town--

Shakespeare's burial site in Holy Trinity Church--the bust of Shakespeare has a quill in the hand that is replaced yearly, in case he ever wants to come back and write more!
