York


Friday night in Leeds, on the way to the pub

Victoria Quarter's decorations are different this year--all silver

A cathedral right next to the Palace pub, all lit up at night :)

A church in York

Every building in York is old and beautiful, and I was taking pictures constantly, so I might not be able to remember all the names for the labels...

This was an old church that is now a pub called "The Parish"

The International Christmas market--This stall served Dutch Pancakes with Bailey's and whipped cream!


We had lunch at a cool old pub in Lendal Cellars--this was the view on the way out

We stopped at this riverside cafe for Belgian hot chocolate (didn't sit outside, though!)

I loved this poster--so great! "There is a great similarity between Cornwall and Italy in shape, climate & natural beauties" :) Fantastic tourism promotion...
