We’ve promised ourselves that out next pleasant sunny day we’d head to York. We want to cruise the River Ouse, but only if the weather cooperates. We found ourselves with a sunny day a week ago, but it was far too chilly and windy for boating. Instead we visited the York Castle Museum. The entrance fee was steep, but well worth it. Inside we walked through a Victorian street complete with functioning period shops. We bought sugar mice at the sweet shop and instantly regretted it. We walked through the castle prison and were entertained and informed by ghosts of people incarcerated and executed there in the 1700's. At the museum café John bought chocolate chip and macadamia nut cookies, and we went outside to enjoy them. A family of geese dropped by to help us finish them. It was a fun way to end our outing. The river cruise can wait for another day.
