England Trip - Visit to Stourhead

On a particularly nice day, i finally made enough noise that they had no choice but take me out. They decided to go visit the Stourhead House which is part of the National Trust. It's one of those estates that you read in romantic novels with big mansions and huge gardens. I remembered it fondly from our last trip to England.

The kids had a great time running around and exploring while the adults had a nice walk, enjoying the scenic landscape.

On our way home, we managed to convince Patrick to take us to go see Alfred's Tower, which the kids were very excited to tell me that it's a triangle tower.
