This post shall show a few impressions of england's capital of the north AND coolest city AND birthplace of the industrial revolution AND home of this year's premier league winner AND OASIS AND Joe J. Levien :o)

Gay village

york

Thats Joe and Liz walking along the ancient wall in york...



thats in the shambles, and old and narrow street in york


the towers of the minster which is the biggest in europe (i think)

and there it is in its full beauty :o)

joe and me went on top of it, kindly sponsored by Liz - cheeeeers

that's it again with a nicer sky in the backround

what would fat people do here? being trapped forever??? climbing up all these steps without reaching the view point????

North Wales

As we liked Wales to bits we also went to the Northern part of the COUNTRY :o)

First stop was at Conwy Castle.....






im scared of sea gulls... especially of this one



Then we went to Snowdownia National Park to get to the summit by this little train..... but it was booked up and we had to hike!!
Couldnt be arsed though and didnt reach the summit in the end....
