YORK!!

York!! A place with many shopping places, eating outlets of every nationality, countless fairs, many chocolate and sweet sinful places, a fantastic church and castle, ghost walks and evil dungeons. How quickly boring it becomes after 3 hours. Together with the streets packed with german tourist ah-mah's moving at "taking grandchild out" pace is appauling as they clog up the narrow streets warffing out their talcum powder smell running tru the air in packed areas making me sick. Not to mention a lovely 3 degree weather in rain. Overall the stress of a boring day killed my excitement after realising there was nothing left to do but wander the streets as i glanced at the sun setting around 3pm. If i ever do visit york again, it's prob with friends who have not been there or if there's something big taking place like watching a circus entirely from dwarfs as they stack themselves to wrestle a elephant balancing on a camel.


Inside one of the many prayer halls. This room was built around 1500s
after it was added


The same prayer room.



Saint Nicholas. Yes, the original father Christmas.



The ally way leading to the catacombs.



This amazing device calculates the time to the second, the earth's position realitive to the stars, the angle which the earth is rotating around the sun. All this with gears and before computers.


The entrance of the church. I love how the light seems to eat away at the dark.



As the church of york governs the churches in north of england (Church of london governs the south churches of england) this room consists of seats where the head of every north church can sit and discuss issues.Back ground of the church choir singing as well.


Me at the entrance.


The windows you see once you enter the church. They are very very big.



At the restaurant. Raymond is a happy man.



Everyone's eating away with our york sing soc friends.
