Power Fluctuations

Well today we were going to Sezincote but it didn't open until 2pm so where to first?

Hidcote i think...

































we may have been tempted to lunch at Hidcote but there were loads of wasps around the cafe. Still these chaps were nice to see.







VERY near to Sezincote was Bourton House Garden....

We couldn't decide wether to have a slice of Tropical Ginger or Coffee and Walnut cake so we have a slice of each and cut it in half :D



















We went on to Sezincote and.... "Due to power fluctuations the house and garden are closed" RATS!!! So we went to Snowshill.

Pete your photos are always amazing. I feel as if I have traveled the great gardens and manors with you. Glad you guys are having a great time.

Snowshill is a stunning, if bizarre plase. Stanton house close by is fun too. Love the giraffe in the orchard.

BTW my blog has changed (noticed your link is still to quicksilver birds). New link is

Sounds like you two are having a grand time. Like Janine, I too feel like I'm traveling with you. The rhinos and giraffe in the grass are marvelous. Great shots.
