Day Two in the Cotswolds

The Cotswolds is an agricultural area that used to be the "wool" district. Now it is a place people love to visit because the villages are well preserved and the farms are so picturesque. We went on two long Cotswold walks, the last of which was about 7 miles and we went to 3 villages.
This is the lovely, quant village of Snowshill.


We stayed overnight on the spur of the moment in this B and B. This is the back yard. We just weren't quite ready to leave the area after our day at the farm and the playground.

We were walking through a field when we had this scary cow encounter. We had this huge herd of cows running toward us and we didn't quite know what to do. Luckily, we discovered that cows are mostly just curious, and not aggressive!
