Stourhead

Also located in Wiltshire is Stourhead.  Not really a big tourist site.  That day there were 40 girls from BYU and about a thousand geriatrics.


This old couple almost ran us over.  They were going about .5 miles an hour and she stopped every 4 feet so he could take another picture.  I wonder how long it took them to make it around the lake, and how many people were injured. 

It was also another place where the most recent Pride and Prejudice was filmed.  The wonderful rainy scene where Darcy confesses his love to Elizabeth in the Temple of Apollo on the hill, and just our luck the temple was under refurbishment.  What are the odds, I’m sure that temple has been there for hundreds of years and it is not going anywhere.


They say pictures are worth a thousand words, but these definitely are not.  But they are beautiful.
