Musing on Bristol...

fajrdrakoI've been spending the evening researching Bristol, where I'll be staying for a while after I leave France in October.
I was hoping to find some nice coach tours for, say, standing stones in the area... or castles. Not much luck. Berkeley Castle seems to be the best best, but I was there last year. I'd like to visit Avebury again, but I'm not sure about bus routes. Ditto the stone circles and (especially) stone row near West Kennet. I wonder what it would cost to hire a car and a driver? Probably waaay too much....
The more I look, the more I find places I'd like to visit or revisit - though it's amazing how much of the region I've already seen, without having been to Bristol itself. And I know my companions want to go to Bath and London... not leaving so many days for my own wandering. I was kind of hoping Tintagel was a possibility, but I haven't found a way by bus yet.
More research needed!
I am thrilled to see that Bristol has art galleries and a Planetarium; I could probably spend all my time in England happily puttering round the city, but it seems a shame to go to a country with castles and standing stones, and not see any.
