York

York is heralded as England greatest city to visit. The town’s medieval history comes to life in the famous Shambles. The street remains in its original medieval form, minus the animals and filth being thrown from the windows. The York Castle Wall still surrounds the city and a tour of the city is not complete until you have walked them as the soldiers did over 1000 years ago.

York Minster Cathedral is a true sight to behold. It towers above the town of York and provided Rose and I with one of our greatest adventures.

Clifford's Tower is one of the last remnants of the York Castle.

  2. Yeah seriously... on that photography comment, I was realizing how MAC's at Best Buy use all "perfect pictures" to sell their laptops, or if it's not a perfect pic, they'll show you how to make it one. But basically, your blog seriously looks like a MAC advertisement, and the composition in all your pics look awesome! You have to give me your secrets sometime =D. BTW, awsome places too!
