If you could take the charm of country living, combine it with Aston Martins, million dollar homes, a famous river, and world class dining, you would have Bray.

This afternoon when I arrived into town, I was privy to a quick drive around the area.  We drove back this two lane road through a canopy of trees, to a soft light at around a sharp corner.  And there was Bray.  We parked the car in the village lot and as I walked out of the lot I spotted The Hinds Head Tavern.  Next to that…The Fat Duck.

I talked about it for months.  Actually seeing it in person put a whole different perspective on my situation.  It became a reality.  I can only imagine what I will be going through next Tuesday when I start.
