Train trip

I've been away for a little break. Can you guess where from the pictures I took from the train window?

Leaving Glasgow Central

 

It's a bit grey and murky as we head east

Past Edinburgh and the sun comes out

passing through Berwick-on- Tweed

 

and Durham 

Nearly there, have you guessed yet?

 

That's right, it's York!

 

The Minster is stunning

 

 
 It was great to wander round and enjoy the unique atmosphere

 

 
so much history

 

so many beautiful and very old buildings

 

 
 One day was sunny and springlike

The next day freezing fog and chilled to the bone cold 

  

No matter, that's the best excuse for a day of shopping and cafe visiting anyone could ever need!

and to cap it all, I found the best button shop I've ever visited

 

Back home now, with the plastic put firmly away and cake off the menu for the time being!

I've never been there but I must say I'm quite tempted by your photos, it looks beautiful! I love old buildings like that, and that button shop sounds interesting too! x

York is really lovely. Its not too far from us, so we often "pop". Your photos are great.

I went to secretarial school in York, just by the Minster. Its a wonderful city but we never seem to visit, too busy spending time with family when we are down that way, so thanks for sharing your trip.
