After today we only have three full days left in England. It’s moving day on Monday again. On this Sunday we had our first bad planning travel day. We traveled to Hereford to see the cathedral and the Chained Library and the Mappa Mundi but alas those rooms/exhibits are closed on Sunday. We were able to walk around the Cathedral so all was not lost.
We are considering changing our route to Henley-on-Thames on Monday so we can travel back to Hereford to see the Chained Library and Mappa Mundi.
Dear is representing the home team jersey in honor of the Seattle Sounders playing the Portland Timbers this evening in Seattle. While in Hereford we walked to the River Wye and crossed the Wye Bridge since we hadn’t seen the river since arriving in Ross-on-Wye and traveling to Hay-on-Wye.
This old bridge has some history of it’s own.
Heading back to the Spiral Cottage via B4224, a road with a white stripe down the middle, thank you very much, we had to stop at the Bunch of Carrots Inn for a little refreshment.
We really have been blessed with some great weather while we’ve been in England. We are in for the evening and we will be watching the World Cup Final game on the telly. Hope your weekend is coming to a good end.


Lovely scenes!
So soon? Seems as if you just got started! Hope that you can see those sites you missed and carry on with nary a hitch.
Cute name for a restaurant 🙂 Hope you got more to eat than carrots, though.
I am in Zurich for a few days, my old stomping grounds before moving to Munich. We were thrilled with the match last night 🙂 your wonderful posts about England is inspiring me to plan a holiday there for next year. Thanks!
I love that view of the bridge…you just don’t see anything like that in these parts!
I also love the “Bunch of Carrots” sign!
Good times, good weather and the best of places to visit! I’m enjoying it with you…via your blog.
Glad you had that white stripe down the middle for this trip! Great pictures again….can wait to see your new place for tonight! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!!
What a beautiful place!
I LOVE the Wye Bridge… 1490? Do we build anything today that will last that long?
