Salam guys, so how many open houses have you've been? Yap, I do feel that I have add a few extra kg, and I'm so lazy to exercise...hmmm...well enough about it. Let's continue...
So, wake-up early morning and get breakfast at the hotel then went to the Paddington Station. I just packed light and left my luggage ion the hotel. So the train to Moreton -In-Marsh will depart at 9.12am but when I arrived, around 8.50am, still not sure which platform yet. Evidently, we only have 10 minutes to get to the platform before it depart and it was intense because I'm not sure which ticket to use( I got 4, like 2 for the journey, the other two for seat reservations). Luckily, somebody help me and manage to get in the train on time.
In the train , still confuse to find my seat which I reserved and has to move from coach to coach until a lady asked me and I told her my seat which is in front of her but somebody occupied it. So she said nicely to the other passenger, that is my seat and I was thankful for it. The nice lady I think a professor or something because her stop is Oxford. Yeah, I'm being general hehe....
The train right was nice because I can see a wide open field and not to mention that there is free wifi. It took around 2 hours to reach Moreton-In-Marsh. When I reach there, again it is the same routine finding the hotel again and suddenly, I feel cold and I just realize that I left my jacket in the train. It just so cold and still ican't find the hotel. It took me around one hour to found it it it is really near the train station. It is a cottage house and it just so beautiful . The lady that run the house is Margaret and he is the owner of the cottage. My room is upstairs and with my own private bathroom. So I asked whether there is shop there that sells jacket or jumper and she said there is the town shops.
So my first destination is to go to the tourist information counter, my plan would be to Broadway, to see this beautiful house but was told to go to opposite site as the bus to go there is seldom and it is already noon. I have a list of places that I wanted to go, the opposite supposed to be tomorrow but it is ok. So, I just follow her direction and then when to buy the jacket but they don't have it anymore because spring is almost over. Then went to Tesco to buy bread or something to eat and then I met my crush, yep he is the Tesco cashier. He has black her with blue eyes, and he said, "Do you need plastic bag with that, love"" I was just melt...hehe.. but need hurry to get to the bus station which is in front of a shop.
So my first stop is Bourton-on-the-water which there is river in the middle of the village. By the way, you can buy a day pass for 10 pound and you can do multi-stop in a day. You can buy from the bus driver and it is called "Discoverer Card" You can find more info from here

So, there I was in the bus seeing all this open wide feel and it just feel so cool and just want to go up there and run like in the Hindi movies hehe. So, when reaching Bourton-on-the-water, it just found a Edinburgh Wool shop and bough "a grandma wool sweater" there. It looks like grandma, but it kept me warms, so warm it is. It just one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. It just so serene with ducks and beautiful country buildings. The river is calm and you just want to jump in it. After taking some photos, I went to the next place Northleach. It is a very old English town, and I just feel that I was in Medieval time. I stuck quite sometime there and just can't remember why I need to go there. After went to Post Office which is inside a shop and I just remember, I need to stop here to take another bus to Bibury, the most beautiful village in England. It was just late and I miss the connection bus. Bibury is quite far away around one hour and I just don't want to take chances to go there and then don't have bus to go back Moreton as the bus only travel up to 6pm. So I just stuck there and take some photos and it is raining but not so heavy. It seems like light rain which on and off.
Then I decided to go to Bourton again because I just can't get enough of its beauty. Then I decided to have late lunch and of course another fish and chips and coffee. It just a beautiful day to having lunch. I just can't stop to see outside and wonder the mighty power of Allah to create such a wonderful place. So, after that I stop at Stow-on-The Wold, same old charming town before taking a bus back to the cottage and just feeling wonderful with a little bit regret because not able to go to Bibury. Maybe next time.
So next update is about "to be or not to be" yep, I visited Shakespeare Want to know more, stay tuned!.
