Jedburgh Abbey Ruins
Sickness starts to increase on the bus - Cathy is sharing her bug which she caught on her European tour and Margot vomits. Lovedays are still OK. Pass through Jedburgh (Beale ancestry) before crossing the English border. Pass through more scenic Northumberland National Park. View a section of Hadrian's Wall, the Roman coast-to-coast defense against the northern tribes.
York is atmospheric ie drizzling when we arrived - visit the York Minster (a cathedral where clergy are trained) huge and very heavenly, The Shambles a narrow medieval street where the second stories nearly meet, and the famous "Betty's" (not the mother in law) Tea Rooms where you you can have high tea and a "Fat Rascal - a scone with dates and sultanas.
