After an overnight flight
from Calgary-Vancouver-London we were thrilled to find ourselves at our Winchester hotel after a
LONG travel day. I thankfully slept more on this flight than I probably ever
have on a plane (6 of the 9 hours) – the steak and few glasses of wine likely
didn’t hurt. Winchester is about an hour south of London, so by the time we
arrive it is about 3:00 and we aren’t dead tired. Hmmm…what to do?? Let’s
see…we think a pub is in order. We stroll around a bit and find ourselves at
the Wykeham Arms. I am thrilled to find a cider, Stowford Press here that is delightful. This
pub is what I have in my mind as a typical British pub, with the requisite cast
of characters. One older man when asked how he was when entering the pub
replied “fairly suicidal” – I’m pretty sure and certainly hope this was a joke
everyone laughed.
After a bit more strolling,
another pint and dinner we are done for the day.
Winchester will be our base for the next 4 days until our
cruise begins on Monday.
