Friday 2.

Took the above photo in one of the towers on the city wall when we took a walk along the top of the wall on Monday evening. The odd shaped hole in the wall is to fire a musket or light artillery at an invader.



The above snapshot is to give some idea of the weather we had - bright, windy, and with about two showers over the three days.



On Wednesday afternoon I got back to our room as the sun was setting. Ann was just stirring, so I put the kettle on and we had a cuppa. As we were having it Ann drew my attention to the view from our window, and I took the above photo. It had been a lovely three day break.

I can't get over the beautiful architecture that surrounds you.

A great idea, staying at a place within the Cathedral close. We have a friend who lives near Canterbury and occasionally stay with or near her - there certainly are some lovely places and scenery in that part of Kent.

I thought that was a beautiful vase in an alcove at first.
Lovely way to spend a birthday.

Glad you enjoyed your trip to Canterbury. Sir B's middle son wants to move back to Suffolk so we may not have the excuse of visiting Kent as often.
