On Saturday, we took a day trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon; it was the second visit for Keila and me, but Yuki had never had the opportunity to go before. It's quickly becoming a favorite destination, seeing as it's only about a 40 minute drive away, is quite peaceful yet chock-full of activities, and this time we discovered the lovely Carluccio's restaurant. Great Italian food and baby-friendly; I can't ask for much more!
We didn't really see any new sites, since we had to get back to Worcester for a company dinner in the evening (Italian yet again, but nothing nearly as good as lunch). Still, I did get a few pictures in better light than on the first visit, and while Yuki paid and went to the back of Holy Trinity church to view Shakespeare's grave, I happily wandered around the main floor and discovered some lesser-known graves that comprimsed the walkways. Felt kind of weird to realize we were trampling over graves as if they were irrelevant, and I wish that the markings hadn't been rubbed down so I could at least give some respect to who I was trodding upon. Not that they're around to care, but still....
In other news, we're busy prepping for our upcoming trip to Italy! I may/may not have time to post again before we go, but in any case, expect lots of pictures after we return!

You could make out most of this gravestone, but the rest were pretty well worn
