Dover/Canterbury

Another day without rain!
We opted to go to Canterbury from Dover.

Canterbury is a city and UNESCO World Heritage Site, in the county of Kent, England; It lies on the River Stour.

We left very early before shuttles to town were available. We took taxi to the bus station and then got on bus 15. In 40 minutes we were in the center of Canterbury.

Our first stop was Canterbury Cathedral.

Canterbury Cathedral is the cathedral of the archbishop of Canterbury, the spiritual leader of the Church of England and symbolic leader of the worldwide Anglican Communion. It is one of the oldest Christian structures in England and forms part of a World Heritage.
The oldest part of the Cathedral was built 950 years ago and more resent part was built 450 year ago. It is a masterpiece of stained glass windows.

We then walked the cobblestone streets of the town and enjoyed the architecture. We walked along the river, which was very pleasant. We returned to the center of the town, had lunch and slowly walked towards bus stop to return to Dover.

In Dover we walked few streets and decided to proceed towards cruise ship terminal. Well, again the motor on the wheelchair told us “No More. I am tired”

We took taxi to the terminal and finished evening with dinner and packing. The end of the cruise is tomorrow.Leia mais
