Stratford Upon Avon

This morning in BC&S, we talked about class distinction and British media. It was interesting to compare their media ethics to ours. They are much more unforgiving than our major news sources. after class, we headed for Marylebone Station to catch our train to Stratfor Upon Avon for the weekend. We ended up at the station early so we decided to get luck for the road. Tanner and I stopped in the Internation Cheese shop and got a bacon and brie sandwich, Funyon-like crisps, and a sparkling apple juice. It was quite delicious. Tanner, Lance, and I shared a four person table on the Chiltern Railways train. I spent the time writing and essay for my online U.S. History class. We had a layover in Solihaul for about a half an our, then boarded another train for the last half hour of our trip. Stratford is beautiful. It is chalk-full of everything Shakespeare. Lance walked us straight to our hotel, The Grosvenor. We are getting washed up to head out again. Tonight we are going to a director's talk and seeing The Two Gentlemen of Verona at the Royal Shakespeare Company
