Since Greg is on vacation for a few weeks we decide to go up north to visit his parents and visit the near by cities. Our first stop in Manchester. Nothing spectacular, it's a regular cosmopolitan city, much to my disappointment. Mind you we didn't visit the whole city.... We basically went to the shopping area of Manchester. The weather was so nice so instead of walking in the Biggest mall in England we decided to walk along the streets. Not too many pictures because of all the construction/renovations.

As you can see, some old buildings are still around. Unfortunately most of the city was under restoration/renovation so a lot of the buildings we covered up.
