The Cotswolds!
We discovered our flight to Italy was "disrupted due to volcanic ash" at midnight (this is how late Jeri was working!), when we were scheduled to depart today at 6:40 am. Needless to say, we had our bags and lunches packed. Since we were already prepared for a few days away, we quickly got online to find a more accessible alternative, and we decided on a great little B&B in the Cotswolds. It is an inexpensive but top-rated (perfect combo!) place to stay in the area. As luck would have it, we got a spectacular deal on our overnight because the room was already booked by a couple who cannot make it into the UK due to all the flight issues!!! This problem with the airlines does have its advantages. We catch a train at London's Paddington Station on Friday afternoon, and in less than two hours we will be relaxing in the gardens at an old English countryside farmhouse. We both have a good book, the weather forecast shows sun, and the relaxation is just what the doctor ordered. Or rather, what I have ordered for Jeri. She is working her tail off...
Italy will be rescheduled for May, and until then we will enjoy more of what England has to offer!
With love,
Amy
