Wednesday. A Day in York.today the English summer arrived and so we donned our umbrellas and headed off to town. our first stop was unplanned as we walked into town we saw a building through a tunnel and thought whats that. it turned out to be the Merchant Adventurers Hall and O' my what a stunning building. 400+ years of history entwined into the building. Well worth the stop. Onward to the city and of course a trip to the Shambles and Newgate Market. after a coffee stop we did the most quintessential English Pastime. Yes we stood in a Queue. A long one, something i detest, but i gritted my teeth and waited until we were entertained with an interesting show at the York Dungeon. Was it worth the wait well i have to say yes it was. The biggest culture shock i think came with the reality of crowds, we had intended to do the Jorvik center but alas the queue was 100 metres + i wasn't spending that much time doing nothing and waiting. we did however go to Marks & Spencers  but unfortunately nothing jumped out at Jacs to buy. We enjoyed our time in town, having a meal before wandering back to our B&B to put our feet up.
