Ticket shambles

After spending the night in quite Harrogate it was off to England’s second most visited city, York, home of one of the most famous gothic buildings in Europe, the York Minster. The rest of the day involved wandering the city wall, touring the Minster, fighting the crowd’s in the Shambles, traversing the museum gardens and visiting the National Railway Museum. After a near ticket disaster in the car park, which involved not only a mad search to find the ticket, accidently left in the car, but also a mad search to find the pay machine before our fee ticked over to the 24 hour rate (we made it with under a minute to spare on a 6 hour carpark), it was off to Newcastle-upon-Tyne for the night.
