Stratford-upon Avon, England

This post is dedicated to Kevin and his lovely parents Joan and Peter. They put us up for a few days before and after we went to Global Gathering. Aki and Jima joined us and were able to experience their first English homestay. Good times were spent eating and relaxing outside in the garden with the flowers and the birds. This was definitely the most chilled out time of our entire UK experience. Should also mention that we got to see Henry 6th part 2 at the theatre where Kevin works one night. Was great!!Amongst all this, however, was the madness of the Global Gathering electronic music festival, which was definitely NOT chilled out. We took many photos at the festival with a disposable camera so alas we have none to show you here (probably for the best). Needless to say it was an incredible weekend. Here are some pics from our stay with Kev and his family. Thanks again, guys.
