Knutsford




Earlier this week I went to lunch with some friends in Knutsford, a quaint nearby town. I had driven through the town before, but never stopped to appreciate it's beauty. We ate at a great Italian place, walked through a few shops, including a sweet shop (in England, they don't say candy, they say sweets), an antique store and an art gallery. There were many more shops that we did not get a chance to peruse and over 30 places to eat offering a taste of many different cultures. The streets were so pretty, I took some pictures to share (click on the pictures to enlarge them). There is also a park in Knutsford that we are going to go back and explore as a family - Tatton Park. It is one of the UK's most complete historic estates: www.tattonpark.org.uk. I think we will need to pack a picnic and spend a few hours there!
