The Mystery Man

Many of you have never seen a picture of our son-in-law (Rob), who I have referred to but never posted a picture of. That is because he works alot and hasn't been able to go with us on our journeys... until yesterday. Rob took the day off from work and drove us to the Heritage Motor Centre in Gaydon, England (near Warwick) and then on to the Warwick Castle. Here is a picture of Rob and Max in front of a 1931(?) Model A, the same kind of car Max learned to drive in.

The Heritage Motor Centre is a huge collection of British Motor cars, dating back to 1896. The Trust owns about 300 cars, of which about 180 are on display at any given time. Most of these cars are on the Austin Healey, Jaquar and Land Rover family tree. The Centre is set on 65 acres of ground and includes not only the museum but also a 4-wheel drive off-road demonstration track, a quad bike track, and a childrens driving area (Go-Karts).
