UK, Paris and Brussel, 2002

The third week started with the trip to Canterbury in Kent. There was a stopover at Sevenoaks where there were once seven oak trees in the area. Canterbury is famous for the great cathedral and the residence of the Archbishop of the Church of England. I missed the morning service at 11 and the choir at the cathedral, however, near the North Gate, there was the Town Hall and a beautiful garden. It was gorgeous.

The sun did not shine during the week. It even rained after we went to the oldest castle in England. The castle of Arundel has a very long history. There were many treasures of the royal family: from what they used to what they wore.

On Saturday, we had a long coach journey to Bath and stopped over at Salibury and Stonehenge. It was a great sunny day. Everyone was happy.

Everyone won't miss the Roman Bath in Bath, but it is quite costly to look at the Roman antiques in a big crowd and it took long time to buy a ticket and queue up to enter it.

After looking at the historical site, my friends and I went uphill to the Circus and the Royal Cresent to look at Bath at a higher level.
