The Warwick on Christmas in England, U.K.

Midway between London and Liverpool lies Warwick, home to magnificent Warwick Castle and some of the friendliest people we’ve ever met.

Jolly old St. Nicholas Park has beautiful gardens, affords a lovely view of Warwick Castle and the River Avon, and has loads of off-leash dogs

Lovely trees along the River Avon

That’s one happy pup!

Bosco was overcome by the lovely views

Warwick Castle dates from 1068, the days of William the Conquerer

We stopped in for tea and scones with clotted cream at this sweet shop, “love, bread & co.” Bosco was very popular and we made some new friends

We weren’t expecting to get mooned…
