To York and Beyond






On the road again and into the ancient Roman city of York. We stayed overnight so we could stroll through the streets and visit York Minster (a huge cathedral like church in the heart of the town). It was worth the effort, really beautiful to see.

Then we headed north to the Northumberland coast and castles, castles everywhere. The daffodils are everywhere and yellow daisies through the grass in the woodlands, magic. We stopped in Alnwick where Harry Potter's castle is located. Will see that today. Beautiful blue skys today and gentle breezes with a balmy 16 degrees outside!!! Almost like home!
