Warwick Castle + Stratford-upon-Avon Excursion

Went on a day trip to this medieval castle (from 1068 when William the Conqueror had it constructed!) and visited some of Shakespeare's old haunts and burial site. I think these two towns are basically what Warwickshire is known for.

Breakfast:
Banana
Lunch at Quicklys, Stratford-upon-Avon, England:
Toasted cheese & tomato sandwich w/crisps, salad & coleslaw (didn't eat)
(I think it would have tasted better with ketchup or tomato soup, but I never did like the taste of just plain grilled cheese. There wasn't enough tomato slices.)
Dessert at No 39 Cafe, Stratford-upon-Avon, England: 
Tea w/coffee walnut cake
(The cake was extremely sweet, and while the coffee flavour was strong, the cake tasted more like a Dunkin' Donuts latte. It was also very dry.)
Forkful of Marissa's brownie
(Insanely fudgey and sweet.)
Late night meal from Whole Foods Market - Piccadilly Circus, London, England:
Assortment of salads from Whole Foods, falafel & hummus
(Oh, Whole Foods, you never fail to disappoint. I preferred the Kensington location overall, but I like some of the salads at the Piccadilly Circus location better.)
Snack:
Veggie lentil casserole of sorts w/chili powder
