I finally put up some pictures to go with the past week at Bedford plus for yesterday's trip to St. Mary's Church and Warwick Castle.
As for the day, it was a typical Sunday with us going to church. Then we talked to my Aunt Lori via Skype on webcam and then later to Chris's parents.
I wanted to mention a few things that I had forgotten on Friday on the way to and back from the Safari Park - there was a sign along the road that said "High Casualty Route" - now that was nerve racking!
Plus, there was another sign that said "Large Plant Crossing". I wanted Chris to ask the guys he works with what the heck that means. As far as I could see, there was nothing around, like buildings or factories, etc. So all I could picture was like a big palm tree all of a sudden popping out and needing to get to the other side.
When we returned on Saturday night we needed to stop at the store and get some milk for the next day. Well we decided to go to the Tesco's (grocery store) that's right near our house as it's a 24 hour store - Except we found out - it's not. So then we drove up to the gas station that's also a Tesco figuring we could pick it up there - well - that closes too. After church today, we again stopped at Tesco's to pick up a few things and as it's was closing at 4pm (again confusing us as to why it says 24 hours), I asked the cashier why they are closing and why they were closed last night. He said that Mon-Fri they are open 24 hours, but on weekends the British rules dictate that they are to close. Ahhh - okay we get it...but then....shouldn't your sign say Open 24 hours except weekends?
