Day 5 Warwick Breakfast, Stonehenge and Ferry to Normandie

We woke up from a ‘refreshing’ sleep in the tents of Warwik and even got to shower.

I dropped my daughter’s camera on the way to breakfast, right after I found two peacock feathers, so there aren’t as many pictures of our activities today. While we were on the Ferry, Kacy was nice enough to let me download her pictures and borrow her camera for the rest of my time with the delegation.
We had a great Medieval breakfast in the castle and hopped on our chariot to Stonehenge armed with brown bag lunches prepared by the Warwick staff.

People to People delegations are the only groups allowed this kind of access to the Warwick ground since the Lord left the castle.
Stonehenge was smaller than I expected. As we learned the history and how old it is, we were duly impressed. Quite a mysterious place…

We then headed to the England coast and our six hour Ferry ride to Normandie. As I said, this was an impressive ship. Like everywhere we went, we were met by a host who outlined the facilities and lead us to our exclusive state room. We settled in, charged our electronic devices and explored the ferry. We had an excellent lunch beginning our introduction to French food. Some of the delegates took in a movie, most explored the ship.

Some of the leaders took advantage of the time to recharge in another way…

I put many of the pictures in this gallery. I took about 2-300 pictures a day, but mostly included pictures with people in them in the gallery. If anyone wants pictures of the art or the architecture , which was amazing, email me. I’ll eventually put the art and architecture pictures in a gallery connected with this one.
We arrived in Normandie without incident and settled into our hotel after a day of travel & exploration. We are ready to consider the events of World War II tomorrow.
