Off to York for the early music festival!

We'll be heading off in a few minutes for the York Early Music festival. There have been a few returns for Jordi Savall, and I'm 9th on the list - I hope I am lucky! There must be a few more people who won't be able to make it! At any rate, my train tickets are bought, so ... is that rain? Joy.

York is cool

There is lots of really old stuff here, like a tower built by the Romans in 300 AD (back then York was called "Eboracum")! I think this picture shows the ruins of an old abbey or something of the sort. Earlier we walked on the medieval city walls - so cool! for some reason I think varina8 would really like this place. We're waiting to see if we get return tickets for tonight's concert (still), sitting on the steps in front of the Minster - wish us luck. If we fail, we'll do the 8 PM ghost walk.
