On to York, England

Tuesday, September 5th, 2006

Wow, so much of what I learned in 11th grade World History is coming back to me now that I’m seeing some of the places that I “learned” about back then. We took the train out of London to York today, and went on a two-hour walking tour of York, England.

Sunday, we went to the British Museum, “Speaker’s Corner” in Green Park, and attended an organ recital at Westminster Abbey. Monday we went to the Palace of Westminster (better known as the Houses of Parliament). It was very cool and interesting; then, we watched the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace.

We’ll be here in York two nights, then three nights in Edinburgh, then on to our first farm in northern Scotland.
