Road trip

When we moved out of our Churchill College flat at the end of July, we left our belongings with Uncle Neil (Mummy's friend) in London. We then went on a road trip within the UK, so that Daddy could drive his nice car one last time before he sold it. Our first stop was to Warwick Castle, but we arrived too late to look for the prince in the castle. Instead we went to the castle gift shop, where I tried out a magic wand.



That first night, we stayed at a hotel near Stratford-upon-Avon, which Mummy says is the home of a famous writer called Shakespeare. There are even bookworms in that place!



We toured the inside of the Royal Shakespeare Company's Courtyard Theatre. Here's a photo of me standing on the stage, holding the red confetti that was used as blood in the previous night's production of Julius Caesar.



Maybe I can be Zoe the Bard when I grow up =)



Our second night was spent in Cardiff in Wales. In Cardiff, we visited the Millennium Stadium. Along the way, Mummy tied me to a post so that I wouldn't run away, haha.



From Cardiff, we drove around in Wales to Tenby, Pembrokeshire. Daddy and I really enjoyed ourselves at the beach, whereas Mummy was absolutely freezing.



During our road trip, I climbed up a lot of places such as Snowdonia and shopping centre in Liverpool.



This is a photo of my happy family when we were in Liverpool =)



From Liverpool, we drove on to Lake District. Daddy and Mummy brought me to an aquarium, where I saw prawns, fishes and shells.



Our last stop of our road trip was to York, where we visited a huge catedral called York Minster. On our last day, we drove to Cambridge, where I visited my favourite playground in Churchill College one last time before we headed back to London. It was definitely a great holiday!
