Jork - Yorvik







I dragged one of my old work friends away on a weekend to York, sorry Woody I hope your feet recover soon! 





We had a fantastic weekend in York. York is the largest medieval walled city in the UK. The walls, minster (amazing views from the top) and Clifford’s tower were all well worth a visit.










Dad, you will want at least a day at the National Railway Museum, you will love it, a train enthusiasts dream.



Jorvik (an archaeological site) was a superb attraction totally unexpected, a ride which consisted of flying above Viking York (aka Jorvik).










York Dungeon was another excellent attraction where we learnt about the darker side of York. York is a really spooky place which is brought to life by dozens of ghost walks, definitely go on one as its really interesting to hear what happened where and also of course see some ghosts!

I'll have to come back to the UK to see all the places I've never been too. How come there were so few people. Looks amazing :-)
