June 19--York

The first item of business today was to turn in the rental car.  The rental car company was housed in the train station so we could pick up our train tickets for the trip into London tomorrow.  According to the odometer we'd driven 2,182 miles without incident!  From the train station we headed back into town and did a self guided walking tour that included walking a portion of the walls that surround the old part of the city, found a street with antique and charity shops, walked through The Shambles which is a medieval street where the local butcher shops were located, and I bought a new hat as my Irish Tweed cap was to hot to wear.  About mid afternoon we headed back to the B&B for a little rest, but then back to Yorkminster for the Evensong Service.  Unfortunately, the service was not sung but said.  Betsy was disappointed but it was a very nice Church of England service.  Dinner then back to the B&B through the gardens of the museum.
