Canterbury, England

The other day trip that mom and I took was to Canterbury, England. Probably most famously known for the Canterbury Cathedral (which is home to the Canterbury choir). As was most of our trip, the day was chilly and wet. But, we persevered and still really enjoyed the quaint town, old castle ruins and the cathedral.

we arrived and that's the "way out"

(we thought those signs were funny!)

We first went to the old Norman castle still standing (barely) on the edge of town

looks like it could lead to the secret garden!

while we were outside this little (well, not so little) feline climbed aboard my backpack

it stayed there for a really long time as we walked around outside

SO funny!

Ha! Ha! Really funny. A bar in town.

Yellow Rose in Canterbury!
