Some things I did in York

York was a really neat city.  I think it's an especially great place for someone to go if they've never been to England before because you can really see what a city looked like way back in the day.  York loves to talk about and display how it has been a part of history for over 2000 years, so there were things to see from the Roman Empire, to the age of the Vikings, the Medieval period, the Victorian age, the Georgian age, etc.  The city was full of a bunch of little museums and I got to go through quite a few of them.  My favorite things to do were just walking around the city and the tour of the Chocolate Factory.  I also went to Castle Howard, which is a little bit outside York, and while I wasn't too impressed by the house, I adored the gardens!  Here are a few pics from my time in York!
