Day five in England

Visit to Bath today! We got up, got dressed, and ate breakfast then left and started our drive. We later arrived in Bath. We stopped for lunch before driving into Cheddar to see the Cheddar Caves, the Cheddar Factory, and THE CHEDDAR MAN! Once we had finished with lunch we got into the car and were on our way. Once we had arrived at the Cheddar Cheese Factory, Sarah and I stepped out of the car and walked through the door where we were greeted by our tourguide. The lady brought us into the back where she showed us EVERYTHING including... well cheese, cheese, and cheese! The factory was HUGE and mostly big metal tubs and tall metal stair cases that didn't look too stable. She ended the tour in the gift shop where my aunt bought me some very old sharp Cheddar cheese. We left the factory and soon after arrived at the Cheddar Caves. We got out and walked across a big sand parking lot. The check in building was less of a building and more of portable building. So I followed Sarah up the small stair case and through the bright green door. I sat down on a small bench while my aunt checked us in and payed the 10 dollar toll for the both of us. They gave us a flash light and sent us in. We wandered through steep tunnels with what seemed like icicles of rock hanging over our heads and bright colorful lights shining up the walls. Once we made it to the bottom of the tunnel Sarah pointed out something sitting in the corner of the cave and I shined the flashlight at it when the stream of light reached the corner I spotted something that made me drop my flashlight! When I found it, picked it up, and re-situated it to shine back at the corner I realized that I wasn't wrong what I had seen was a real skeleton. Supposedly they called him the Cheddar Man. We got out of there as fast as possible and next we headed to the Cheddar Gorge. I had only been there one time before that when I was only little. The gorge was amazing it actually looked like melted cheese dripping from the walls!!! We stayed another night in Bath at the Webbington Hotel.

Day four in England

YAY today I get to see Stonehenge! We left SUPER early in the morning, because it takes a half a day to drive there. So I woke up (was woken up), ate breakfast, and hopped in the car. We drove by bright green forests and beautiful lakes covered in moss making THEM green… pretty soon I was SICK of green I wanted to see some brown, blue, or orange! We drove for so long that when we left it was sunny and by the time we stopped for lunch it was pouring CATS AND DOGS! The visibility was very low because it gets very foggy out there. As Sarah was pulling out of the parking lot of the diner we had eaten lunch at, a very RUDE man pulled just behind us. Though we didn’t end up hitting him he was quite mad and he broke out into a yelling match. Luckily he had a really intense cockney accent so I didn’t really understand him. I did hear the word arsehole which really riled me up because HE was the arse either that or he was arseholed (translation can be found on the TRANSLATION PAGE). After that we drove for a few more hours. We FINALLY got to the destination at seven to eight o’clock. We were there for about an hour and we left at nine. That night we stayed at a hotel just down the road. The next day we went back because I felt we had not been there long enough to take everything in! The Stonehenge is so beautiful and magical I wanted to know more about it so when we got to the nearest hotel a few hours later before bed and after dinner I decided to go on the computer and look up “Stonehenge.”
