Salisbury, England

15 December 2013

Last week I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Salisbury, England.
Like I said in my previous post on Salisbury Cathedral, I was not really excited about visiting. However, everything about this tiny English town was lovely and I would love to go back one day (possibly when it's warmer).

We only spent about 4 hours in Salisbury, but I absolutely fell in love with it's traditional English feel. 
We wandered around the busy streets, drank some mulled cider, and of course, hit up the Christmas Market.


I have a couple more day trips planned before I go back to Texas for Christmas.
What other trips should I plan for the spring?

Happy Sunday!

Salisbury Cathedral

11 December 2013

After my trip to Stonehenge with the other international students, our guide took us to the town of Salisbury.

To be honest, I wasn't really looking forward stopping in some tiny town that I knew nothing about. I was cold and ready to go home. However, I was impressed beyond belief. Not only was it a beautiful English town, but there was so much to do! 

Salisbury Cathedral was our first stop.
Dating back to the 13th century, this cathedral is home to the world's oldest working clock and one of the four original copies of the Magna Carta. I have now seen three out of the four original surviving copies!


I was amazed at the size of the cathedral considering Salisbury is such a small little town. 
Being able to hop on a bus and see these beautiful cathedrals is still a bit surreal to me!

Happy Wednesday!
