Feature Friday! BVF's 2014 Adventures, an Amazing Start!!

I had an enjoyable flight with Virgin Atlantic, our favourite airline! There's a daily direct flight from Las Vegas to Gatwick. Virgin Atlantic is a great experience from the time you board the plane. I flew premium economy and was greeted with a welcome drink! The crew is always cheerful and professional! 

The entertainment center available on Virgin Atlantic is superb! You can watch TV and movies, listen to music, play games, and so much more!! 

You can even write or look up recommendations for the city you are traveling to. 

Great feature! You can even track the flight!! 

Dinner was yummy! The menus change on a regular basis. 

Guiness Stew was tasty! But always be sure to hydrate while traveling, it's easy to get dehydrated. 

The flight was very smooth and after 9.5 hours we arrived! Yeah!! 

Gatwick was busy and bustling on Wednesday morning and my thoughtful friend Di was there to greet me. She made a welcome sign, how nice!!!  

We picked up right where we left off and we were on our way!!! 

First stop was Winchester, this quaint town has a gorgeous Cathedral, one of the largest on England! 

The stunning Winchester Cathedral. 

Di knows how much I love visiting churches, it was wonderful to be able visit the Winchester Cathedral. The church was founded in 1079, wow!! 

The workmanship is breathtaking! 

Gorgeous stained glass. 

Quick fact about Winchester Cathedral, one of England's treasured novelists Jane Austen is buried there. 

After our visit, we had a lovely lunch at the church's cafe. 

The menu is changed daily and a countdown is kept to track how many of each item is available! We had salad and goat cheese tarts, yummy! 

Following lunch Di and I went to town and had a nice time wandering around. 

Wow, what a great day!!! Thank you Di for your warm welcome!!! 

We look forward to sharing more about our adventures.
