yorkie poo.

still traveling north, york was next. 


another minster, yes, york minster. (i swear, all of these pictures are starting to jumble together!)


we marched on this roman wall into the city.







this guy looks super comfortable, don't you think?



there was a neat crypt underneath the main part of the minster that held things from the history of this particular minster. this church had gone through reining's from roman's, saxon's, norman's, and a medieval period. the architecture was, again, amazing and articulate. 


after seeing the church, we had about an hour and a half to spare and we wandered through the town. we passed a little shop that was doing, yes, you guess it... deluxe aqua pedicures. guess what this means? a pedicure where fish suck the dead skin off of your feet!
catie and i were the only ones who would brave this activity. 




i could NOT put my feet in. i was so scared.













wonderful hot cocoa though!


it was the weirdest feeling! the fish were without teeth so they literally sucked on your skin. i was dying laughing and crying. it was hilarious. had there been others in the shop, they probably would have walked out. 


fountain's abbey. another historic abbey. it was huge! and there were gardens and grounds that went around for two miles.
