AUGUST 4, 2004 LANDS END

Travel update for 8/4/04. Awoke this morning to grey skies and drizzle, so decided it would be a great time to get an eerie picture at Stonehenge. Fortunately, however, the sun came out before we made the 10 miles to Stonehenge, so that plan was temporarily scrapped and we headed for Land's End, the most extreme south western spot in England. Since we were unprepared to the spur of the moment change of plans, we stopped along the way for lunch. Snapped a quick photo of the pub on the way out and completed the trek to our destination. On our return we stopped in for the afternoon cream tea at a quaint little spot. The fresh baked scones, strawberry jam and clotted cream were the best ever!! Anyway we finally made our way back home and arrived around 9:30 pm. I've attached pics taken along the way. The country side here is unbeatable and with all the driving today....no billboards and no trash along the roads. I just felt like something was missing...ah ha.. very few to almost no fast food places like Mcdonalds...or KFC. Nice!!!

Hope you enjoy the pictures... and more to come..here is the link for these pics.
