This morning we strapped ourselves into our rental car (a little tighter than usual since we'll be trying to remember to keep ourselves on the left side of the roadway....Yikes!!) and took off for the New Forest. We lunched on, what else?....fish and chips in scenic Lyndhurst, where the grave of Alice Liddell, Lewis Carroll's inspiration for Alice in Wonderland, can be found. We moved on to Beaulieu where we toured Lord Montagu's palace and Britain's National Motor Museum.
Chuck was excited to find a twin to the beloved MG that he had when I first knew him! (Is it a sign of age to see cars we've driven in a museum??)
We even saw some models we haven't seen on the road....
... and even a little display that reminded us of sister Binky!
The major challenge of the day was avoiding the New Forest ponies that roam free through the area, ignoring all strictures to "keep to the left!" (A little reminiscent of the camels and cows in India!!)
