On our 2nd day in York (yesterday) we met up with Dr. Mark and visited 3 different places. This was awesome because he knew all about everything in the museums so he could explain everything. My favorite part was visiting the York Minster. They are currently working on it because it's at a 7 degree tilt, so they're taking every piece off and reassembling it. It's quite amazing how they do it. And we got to hear the choir sing and that was very peaceful. Everything we've seen here has all been super cool, and the trip is going so fast.
Last night I was really pooped out so I layed down to take a nap right after I blogged at 7pm and I didn't wake up until 8:45 the next morning. So, I got about 13 hours of sleep! It felt amazing!
Today we woke up and went to breakfast and decided to venture to the Viking Museum. This was sooo cool! This museum is built right where they dug up all of the viking remains. We went through the museum on these boat like/chair like things so we didn't have to walk. The Museum also (purposly) smelt like it did back then also. And let me tell you, it's not a pleasant smell. They had life like vikings working, and they even had one making sounds in the bathroom as if he were taking a dump. This was quite amusing actually. They also had real "vikings" working on coins, and making yarn. I just wish all the museums were like this!
During our free day today we did a lot of shopping. I bought a something for Dad and Cathy and Mom. But, I'm saving most of my money for when we're back in London so I don't have to tote everything around with me. Well, I'm going to get going, I only have 10 minutes left on here, and I have laundry to get done.
I miss you all (including dad)! haha.
Until next time...
