Shakespeare Holy Ground

Amongst a few other Shakespeare-related houses, we visited his Birthplace.  Being the American Revolution nut that I am, I was thrilled to see that Adams and Jefferson had visited in (I think) 1786.  I guess it's something I should have expecting, especially knowing Adams, but I didn't really think on it.  I definitely had a moment while standing in a building that so many important people, especially Shakespeare, have been in.

 

But first... more ducks!  The one on the left actually reminds me of when my African Grey was a baby.  He used to lie flat on his stomach, looking an awful lot like a pancake!  I think the duck looked flatter in person though...

 

Ok, I'm an idiot and only took pix of the back...

 

I must say... all the doors in these houses were perfect for my height... ::smirks::  Sort of like the ones in Pompeii... lol
