Cambridge and stuff...

Day trip #1 st. augustine's abbey ruins 


This place is just amazing, it was a peaceful place for me, i could just sit and think and breath


I could not have picked a better first day trip because it gave me a chance to breathe off the slight tinge of homesickness i was feeling 


Unfortunately i don't have a bunch of really cool stories to tell about this sight, 


I think it was destroyed during henry VII during dissolution... yeah i think i am supposed to know more but that's all i got so check out the pictures

Eden and me!! Standing in front of what was probably once a amazing stained glass window... but look it is still beautiful just a different beautiful. 


Canterbury Cathedral 


it was pretty good... but our TOUR guide basically hated TOURists so no big deal 


He kept saying to us... "all you care about is getting the pictures you want to the places you see, you don't even care to learn anything about the places you go"


hmmmm interesting because last time i checked i am on a STUDY abroad and from personal experience i have done some learning/ studying 


and although the TOUR guide was not the best the building was wonderful 

WOW IT IS GREAT RIGHT? 

This is the spot where thomas becket was martyred  this is one of the places that many catholics come for pilgrimages to visit the sight of his death  

although this shot is quite blurry you still might 

be able to see the difference between this window 

and other stained glass windows because it is a 

more modern window and it looks like they are all 

disney characters the colors were also brighter

This is a kind of cool shot of the vaulted ceilings they are absolutely crazy cool in this cathedral

well thats all folks... at least of the canterbury cathedral

Next stop of the day was CAMBRIDGE 


the best part of cambridge was that we got to hear the boys choir there in the church it was really a great experience 

we also had the opportunity to go punting down the river and see all of the different "school" 
this is the name of our lovely boat 


jordan...i swear we have some kind of inside joke about big bertha so i thought of you while i was taking this photo

the lighting while we were here was amazing
