York and the Railway Museum

 Toady we had rain for some/most of the day so I headed to the Jorvic Viking Centre. This was a great place and I would have loved to take my grandsons with me!! This is the result of excavations by archaeologists from 1976-1981. Many artefact's were uncovered and this centre shows life as it was then. You walk over a glass floor where excavations have taken place and see an old shoe bones etc!! David you would love this!!!
Rainy day at the Art gallery York
I then headed off to the Railway Museum. Now young Oliver this is heaven for you!!! All the trains you love are here and more!!! I think all my grandchildren would love it really and it was fun to while away time among the old engines. The Royal Train even had a bath and of course a full size bed!! They really rough it when they travel!!
I finished my day in York with a walk around the river path as the sun came out at last for a while.For Oliver!!!
