So this England voyage is turning out to be pretty crappy....literally....explanation to come...
Today we went to visit Saltram, the mansion and grounds at which Sense and Sensibility was filmed. Really awesome house. In the afternoon we went to the University of Plymouth for a conference. While waiting for the ferry ride home, I feel something hit my hand. I looked down and asked, "IS THIS POOP?!?" Of course it was, not to mention there are speckles of poop on my shirt and bag as well. Everyone had a good chuckle until Nate and Taryn realized that they too had been shat upon. Nate said being pooped on by a bird is good luck, but Tiffani claimed there is no way that is ever lucky. Interestingly enough, the rest of the group walked away and left those pooped upon in quarantine by the benches.
After our fantastic dinner of chicken wrapped in bacon, Crystal, Kate, Nate, Christine and I went for a walk along my running route, the Southwest Coast Path. It was about a 3.5 mile hike out and back. We were able to take some fantastic pictures at sundown.
On a blog maintenance note, the English crew (aka the internet here) is not so great at uploading photos...hopefully this will be worked out soon.
Being pooped on is not "good luck." It's just what people say to make themselves feel better they were pooped on. (This also applies for rain on your wedding lol.)
