BUGATTI TRUST AND MUSEUM, PRESCOTT SPEED HILLCLIMB, COTSWOLD MOTORING MUSEUM

Today we went to the Bugatti Trust, in Cheltenham, England, which is a museum, library, and archive of all things from the history of Bugatti.  It is adjacent to the Bugatti Car Club and The Prescott Speed Hillclimb Course.  There were some cars going up the hillclimb course today so I got some pictures of them.  Also we went to the Cotswold Motoring Museum in Bourton on Water, England today and I have included some pictures from that Museum.
Tomorrow we are going to the historic races at Silverston Race Track in Silverston, England.  Check back tomorrow for pictures.
