England & Scotland 2018 Day 6



Day 6 26-Nov 2018 Monday
Hotel: Premier Inn Manchester City Centre (Arena/Printworks) GBP81 breakfast included
Shakespeare's Birthplace/ Holy trinity church-grave
Manchester Old Tratford Stadium/City/ Christmas market/Chinatown

Breakfast @ PI Stratford upon Avon



Had a good PI breakfast again. After that, we went to walk around the town, and somehow ended at Holy trinity church to visit Shakespeare grave. Had to pay GBP6 as voluntarily donation.  The town was basically a Shakespeare town, we past by Halls Croft, even the Shakespeare's daughter, Susanna and her husband Dr John Hall was made into museum, and payment needed to visit



Shake's Birthplace




At about 11am we started our drive to Manchester. The drive was quite ok, many cars on the road, but speed was quite fast >100km/hr most of the time, used the toll road of GBP6.40. But once we were into Manchester the traffic became quite slow, the city was full of cars & construction. 






1st stop Old Trattford Stadium..many many big size security guarding the place with bag check before entering the shop..and things were expensive there








Check in & had lunch at the Xmas market just a short walk from PI





Sights of Manchester City



We tried visiting Machester Art Gallery, but it did not appeal to us , we were out like in 10mins..since that we avoided art gallery like pest.

Dinner was at Chinatown, was first appalled at the price as each item on the menu was about GBP10 or more for vege/tofu/roast, but when the food came, the portion was actually enough for 10pax..so I would say it was pretty cheap for big family. But for our family with small eater, we had a hard time to finish the food.

Saw a man ordered 3combi roast on rice..the meat was so much that it covered all the  rice, and the rice was so much that can feed 3ppl.about GBP10 only






Roast meat with mash in large yorkshire pudding from xmas market near PI manchester
