A weekend with the girls! This time we were heading to see Natalie in
Durham. Durham is a beautiful city just
two hours north of Hull. After a short
train ride I was thrilled to meet up with Natalie, Christy, Rebecca and
Stephanie. We spent Friday night doing
our usual catch up and having a good time.
Saturday morning we took a walk into the town center and went to Durham
Cathedral. This was such a beautiful
area. The best part was the climb to the
top of the tower. After 325 steps in a
nice tight circle to the top we were greeted with an amazing view. Another fun fact is that parts of Harry
Potter were filmed at the cathedral. Yes
I was standing where Harry Potter once stood.
Check that off the list!

Before heading home on Sunday we went to Beamish to pretend
we lived in older times. It was great to
just wander around their little town and visit old school rooms, churches,
shops and farms. We also had some nice
history lessons from the workers in the town.
The dentist was a favorite as he taught us about using cocaine to deal
with the pain and showed us evil tools that were used to pop out a tooth or
two. Must say I am thrilled for modern
health care! Another great weekend out
and about.
