S5:Ep7 - Summer Journeying through Leeds
Manage episode 431674292 series 3431012
JULY 2024
I've settled into my routine, my allergies are gone, and I'm exploring more of the city, even though it's a bit chilly and cloudy.
I experienced an authentic British Sunday roast, a tradition that's been around since medieval times. It’s all about families coming together for a hearty meal, and I’ll share a bit of its history.
I also visited the Thackray Museum of Medicine in Leeds, a fascinating place filled with medical history and interactive exhibits.
I love my train day trips, so one day I took a trip to York. I visited the stunning York Minster, strolled through the medieval Shambles, had a delicious lunch at the Earl Grey Tea Rooms, and explored the York Castle Museum. I'll share all the details of my day, including a stop for a cold beer at Pavement Vaults.
And finally, I'm ready for a new adventure. Next stop: Cologne, Germany. It’s a city full of history and amazing architecture.
