I think I may have the strongest legs in the world...

I spent the last two days in York and Newcastle and I think I walked the most I've ever walked in my life. It was well worth it though, because now not only do I have nicely toned legs, but I was able to see two beautiful cities in England. York is a really old, quaint city.



In this picture you can see the cathedral in background. Inside there are huge stained glass windows. We also saw a train museum, the castle museum, and walked around the city wall.


















Newcastle has been one of my favorites so far. This picture was taken from the top of a castle built in the 1100's. The city is right next to a river, and one of the bridges (not the one in this picture) is lower, so when ships come in it has to turn to let them through. The big silver building behind the bridge in the picture is actually a theater. We went inside and it is simply huge.









Lately there have been a lot of people who have not been feeling well, and unfortunately I caught whatever has been going around. Thankfully, I am feeling a lot better. They have a juice here called J2O, which has powered me through a runny nose and a sore throat. It is absolutely amazing. So far apple and raspberry is my favorite kind, but I would have to say that apple and mango is a close second.
