Glastonbury adventures!

Tuesday 5/14/13
Off the plane finally!
Then a train to Paddington Station where we then, got on a train to Bristol.
I am writing this on the train to Bristol. There was a lot of firsts today. First time going on a plane overseas, first stamp in my passport and my first train ride. Oh wonders! We are getting to the rolling fields. Wow! I must stop and admire this for a second. I saw a beautiful field full of yellow flowers, it seemed like they'd soaked up all the sun. They were so vibrant.

I'll try to recapture
the events of yesterday and today.

After we finally arrived to Glastonbury, we found our way to the place we're staying - the Pilgrims B&B. It's a very lovely place. We got the top floor. The room is light purple with yellow curtains. You can see the Tor from the window on a sunny day. Wednesday, we had a full breakfast, which comprised of sunny side eggs, baked beans, toast, bacon, mushrooms and tomato - yum! It was very filling. After, we went to the Tor where we almost blew away, The wind was amazingly strong. Then onward to the Chalice Well where we dipped our feet into the chilling water. Glastonbury Abbey is where we went next. We walked the edge of the abbey until we found ourselves in a little apple orchard. In the middle of the orchard was a woman made out of woven branches. People had adorned her with ribbons and flowers. Some even put bracelets and necklaces on her. The Abbey was extraordinary, so much history, so many people have walked the grounds. King Arthur and Queen Guinevere are believed to have been buried there.
One thing that I found extremely amazing was that during the Dissolution of the Monasteries almost all the buildings were taken down but Saint Mary's chapel - also know as Saint Joseph's chapel. It's a mystery why they felt like they should leave it. Later we went for a walk around town and followed our noses to a delicious smelling fish and chips place - Knights Fish and Chips Restaurant. It was a very yummy experience!
