| Blenheim Palace Gardens |
On Tuesday of the trip, we took a coach bus as a group to Blenheim Palace and Sulgrave Manor. Blenheim Palace was our first stop. Blenheim Palace was the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. We spent a couple of hours here, taking a visual/audio tour and walking around the gardens. The gardens were gorgeous and there was a lot to see, such as fountains and curved hedges around the paths.
I love taking photos of nature and seeing God's creation all over the world, and this was just another example of His beauty. I am always in awe of His creation and Blenheim Palace blew me away with its beauty.

Sulgrave Manor was the last spot we went to for a tour. Sulgrave Manor is the home where George Washington's ancestors lived. The tour was extremely interesting and our tour guide provided us with a lot of information, such as the fact that if one of Washington's ancestors had not changed his name, our president would have the name George da Heartburn, which I think would be very strange. The tour guide said we should be very thankful because if it had not been changed we would have "Heartburn D.C." rather than "Washington D.C." We also visited St. James the Less Church in Sulgrave, a few minutes walk from Sulgrave Manor.
