The last day in York

Today is our last day in York, and we have spent most of it walking.

This morning, we walked around the City Wall. There was an original wall built by the Romans, but not much of that remains now, although the remains of it can be seen in places - notably the Museum Gardens. The City expanded under the Normans, and the wall that exists today is the Norman wall. A length of it does follow the line of the original Roman wall. The walk is about 2 miles, and on such a lovely day it was a great way to spend some time - it took a while because I kept stopping to take photos! I've uploaded a sample; don't worry, they're not all there!!!

The afternoon was spent wandering around the city streets, which I just love. We also cruised them a little on a sight-seeing bus, just in case there was anything that we had missed.

Now there's time for one more walk, and then tomorrow we head to Whitby and Goathland. More fine weather is promised, and so this should be good too!
