We're in London now but I thought I'd share a few pictures of York.
The Minster. We did the tour, fun but we're sort of churched out at this point.
York has reconstructed most of the wall that used to surround the city. You can walk it for some great views.
The Minster from the wall.
One of the old gates on the wall.
Bridge over the Ouse river that runs through York.
St Mary's (or the remains there of).
This is an area they call "the Shambles" - rumor has it it was the inspiration for JK Rowling's Harry Potter/"Diagon Ally". I should mention the girl with the curly long hair and glasses in the lower right corner, Hazel, was our tour guide on a walk of the city. She's an archeology student at York U (or whatever it's called) so she had some interesting insight into the history of the city.
