Tucked away in the little village of Moreton Corbet, a stone’s throw away from the Shawbury RAF base, the remains of Moreton Corbet Castle lie at the side of the road. The signpost had been swallowed by a hedge so we initially missed our turnoff, but a quick U-turn later we found ourselves looking upon the castle.
Today we took a road trip up to the beautiful city of York. We set off early to arrive just as the attractions were opening, but even though I was outside York Minster as it opened at 10am, I had to stand in-line for nearly 30 minutes to gain entry. This is by far the busiest cathedral I’ve ever visited, with what must’ve been at least two coach-loads of tourists queueing to get in.

For our first year Wedding Anniversary weekend, we decided on a trip to Cambridge, as we’ve not explored much of East Anglia before.

This morning after a quick trip to the local shopping centre for some essentials, we set off to visit Phoenix Park and Dublin Zoo which is less than 15 minutes from our hotel. Phoenix Park is the biggest inner-city park in Europe, and it is definitely very big, it’d probably take around an hour to walk from one side to the other.
