That's York, not New York. Big difference, there, but all I can say is - WE HAVE THE ORIGINAL.

Moving on from that - we went to... somewhere, I forget the name... so my step-dad could do a drive that's been booked since before his birthday in February. He was driving an Aston Martin Vantage around a track, just for the epic. The weather was being more tsundere than I can remember it being for a long time. When we got there it was sunny, then it got cold, then it completely bucketed it down for about fifteen minutes, then suddenly, it was so warm I had to take off my coat. Wtf, England.

Well, here are some photos of fast cars.































I took all those while waiting for John to get called up for his drive. Then, it started to pour down.. but it stopped quite soon after.








Okay, so that's enough of that. After we finished there, despite the fact that my mum's and sister's feet were soaked because they wore silly shoes, we went into the city of York for a look-see. They have a surprisingly large number of little churches and parishes, and a cathedral (Yorkminster) all in the Gothic style, which I absolutely love.

o_o That's really old! And they sure have had to invest a lot on it. But it's worth it, it looks pretty :)

We have cathedrals like that all over (check out Westminster (http://www.sights-and-culture.com/London/Westminster-Abbey-4141.jpg), and Canterbury (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/77/Canterbury_Cathedral_05.JPG))

They're part of our heritage, so we look after them =3
