Round the World in 36 hours - by car

 
  Now we headed north across lovely Hampshire countryside to the M4 at Hungerford and headed west. Our next stop at Pennsylvania should have been a quick run, but once more holiday traffic held us up for over half an hour - very frustrating.
     
  Jenny now took over the driving and soon got used to the easy style of the Mazda6 Tamura that had been loaned to us by Guildford Mazda.

By now the M4 was clear and we had an easy run over the Severn Bridge to Christchurch near Newport. We chose this Christchurch instead of others because we had to go along the M4 anyway and it was a short run off and back on.

     
  Jenny drove on to the last junction on the M4 whilst I had a doze. Here we refuelled and had a friendly chat with the local Traffic Cops who were very interested to know what we were up to. No donation though!

Bethlehem is a small village in Carmarthenshire and some cross country motoring on local lanes took us to this lovely location as it was starting to get dark.

The Post Office here is famous as it is very popular at Christmas for those wishing to get this famous location stamped on their cards.

  Next a long run back into England via Brecon and Hereford brought us to Wellington on the A49 south of Ludlow.
     
  Jenny had had a hard week at work and was suffering from a cold, so felt she should have a doze before driving any more, so I took over and had a pleasant drive along the A44 through Bromyard to Worcester. Then onto the M5/M42 to get to Hollywood, to the south of Birmingham and not too far from MD HQ at Kings Heath.
