Today I went to York to see a girl I haven’t seen in 13 years.
I used to live next door to a British family, but they moved back when I was 10 years old, and I haven’t seen them since. When I said I was coming to England, I knew I had to try and see at least my best friend at the time!
We decided to meet in York, as she is studying in a city the other side, so we met in the middle.
Other than having a great time seeing her and catching up on over a decade of news, York was also a really beautiful place. They have a big castle in the middle, and an old city wall around the perimeter – some of it an old Roman wall!! The huge cathedral was really nice too.
The highlight for me though was afternoon tea for lunch. We went to a place called Molly’s and got a vintage tea for two… SO MUCH AMAZING FOOD!
I could barely move after I had finished, but I wouldn’t do anything different.
When I got to Manchester, we tried again to get into Cloud 23, but it was booked out again! I did get to see Professor Flitwick from Harry Potter though. I was too scared to go and get a picture, but we half followed him all the way to his car.
Tomorrow, leaving for Edinburgh xx
