Flo & Tony's Visit

Not too long ago, Ed and I had a visit from Flora and Tony (Flo was a student of my Dad's). They both came down to Canterbury for the day and we had a great time looking around the city. After a good pub lunch at the Dolphin, we went to the ruin of the Norman Castle by the city walls. Now, it is just a shell, but you can walk up one of the stair cases and imagine what it looked like all those centuries ago. Secondly, we went to the St. Anthony's Hospital (the hostel kind, not the medical kind), where we saw where many of the pilgrim on their to/from the Cathedral rested their feet and fed their tummies. There was a sleeping area, and a chapel, and all tucked away right next to the High Street! All in all we had an awesome visit, and we can't wait to do it again.
