A very popular BISC event – and we certainly know why...a trip to the beautiful English countryside! The journey was less than 2 hours away from Bristol. We visited 3 places for the day, starting with Chedworth Roman Villa on our first stop. Arriving just before 11.00am, we explored the place with some people who opted for the visual presentation while the others wandered off on the audio tour assisted by a handy device.
In Bourton-on-water, our second stop, we had time for lunch and to explore the beautiful village. Taking advantage of the lovely weather on the day, some of us lunched by the riverside. Photo taking kept everyone busy with cameras flashing throughout the afternoon.
We proceeded on to our last stop of the day to the quaint village of Broadway. Upon arriving, we were served traditional English cream tea with home made scones accompanied by fresh coffee/tea. The rest of the afternoon was spent exploring the beautiful yellow (Cotswolds) stone with more flashes for the album! At about 5.30pm, we headed back to Bristol. A truly wonderful day out was had by all.
BISC is organising a trip to Oxford on 15th March, while there are still spaces left – hurry, book online or pop into BISC office!!
