Durham and York
... favourite, with the cathedral's plain ceiling covering a series of smaller shrines, including that of St Cuthbert. Back outside, we visited the Cathedral Library via the cloisters. A librarian (a Kiwi) gave us an impromptu chat about the 13th century building, which used to house the refectory and the dormitories. Went back through the cobble paved alleys of town.

Day 149: We got into York and immediantly thought that this is what Old England should look like, from the imposing wall that surrounds the old part of the city to the small lane ways zigzaging through houses and shops. After checking in we went for a walk for the rest of the afternoon taking heaps of photos and looking at all the really cool buildings. The cathedral is amazing but for £15 pounds it was a bit much, plus we could see most of the inside ...
