England Adventure with the Mason's - Part II

Our England adventure continued after we left London. We headed to Bath where the boys got to see the Roman Baths, while mom and I did some shopping. We showed them the main sights in Bath and then headed to Stonehenge from there. We just saw Stonehenge through the gates, but it was still really fun - we took lots of goofy pictures and tried to stay dry when it started to rain (of course).

After Stonehenge we headed back to our house and spend the next couple of days exploring in and around our town - we went to base, walked all around Ely, went into Cambridge, saw some Harry Potter sights, and hit up one more beautiful castle before they left. It was hard to see them go on Sunday, but we had such a great time :)

Ely Cathedral
They had the coronation chair from the King's Speech there (because those scenes were filmed at the cathedral), so we all took turns being King/Queen ;)
