York... York! ... YORK!

What a beautiful city. I love it for another reason though: because it has history in every step. When I walk down a street in York, I think about how a Roman Emperor walked here once too, and a Viking.

When I look at the cathedral (in the picture above), I think about the poor people who lived here so long ago, how religious they were, and how this building was a kind of heaven on earth for them.

When I look at the stone walls around York, I think about how 400 years ago, Oliver Cromwell looked at them too, before attacking the city with his soldiers. (Cromwell is in the picture below.)

I went to York the first time last month, and I will be going there again this summer. If you love history too, come out with me for a walk. Let's put our footsteps on the streets of York too, so that someday, the children of our children of our children can walk where we once walked too.

See you there!
