Durham and York
... 11th century Norman Cathedral of Durham. Unlike Westminster Abbey, the Cathedral was very decoratively clean on the inside. The windows were smaller, the construction stone more light in colour and not nearly as covered by inscriptions and tombs. Huge columns, decorated by simple patterns lined the nave and beyond. From the centre of the cross, one could see a good way up the bell tower, and made it easy to imagine what Tintern Abbey might have been like. The back of the cathedral ...
Airports and aeroplanes

I walk up to my departure gate a few hours early to discover the chairs up there don't have arm rests so I can lay out across them :-) why did I not walk up here sooner?!
