UK roadtrip - day 6 - York

Had another ridiculously hot day today.

We went into York via the park and ride and tried to find a place to have breakfast. Question? Don't Oxford people eat breakies? Even the places that sprouted 'breakfast' signs didn't serve breakfast today O.o

Neil went off to terrorize the city's bookstores and pay a visit to the Evil Empire (aka Games Workshop) while Nicci and I trudged off to find the Museum of Natural History - which turned out to be brilliant but damn! It was hard on the feet - even the Pitt collection - which didn't open till noon, couln't get me to agree to another hour (seriously!), even though it was damned interesting.

We went back in to meet with Neil, had lunch at the Red Lion and then set off to meet with [personal profile] sazandra - Neil begged off the girly time and hunted down some ice for the cooler instead. Us three first went to Coffee Republic for a coffee and coke and then went hunting for a fan (not a FAN fan, but a fan to cool us down with). Having obtained that and aftersun lotion, we said our byes to [personal profile] sazandra (hope to see you again, hon, it was GREAT seeing you in person ^_^ (and good luck on the new boss-man)

We're now chilling with cider, beer and photoshop *g* - tomorrow we're off to Cardiff ^_^
