York

York is one of the oldest cities in England. Vikings settled in York and we went to Jorvik, the viking museum which has a replica of a viking village and lots of old relics from the vikings including the bottom of a house, their shoes, bowls, knives and some skeletons that had old battle wounds.
The streets are tiny and uneven and  the shop buildings are very old.
We saw where Guy Fawkes was born. He tried to blow up Parliament.
We saw Howard's Castle which was used to film an old TV show and is huge, with a man made lake and huge gardens.
