Iconic names and places have come alive Canterbury Cathedral , Sandwich the Grand Old Duke of York..and of course the white cliffs of Dover,and Dover Castle.
Staying with Lisa ,Mick and Chloe has been great lots of laughter and local knowledge giving us a inside information of what to see.
Our base has been the village of Aylesham, like Reefton and Tennant Creek a mining town where people in the community are known to each other. We have felt very much at home here.
The size and history of Canterbury Cathedral the organ music and pealing bells the high roof and looking out seeing the stories told in stained glass.
Hearing that they were all taken out during the war and put in a coal mine for safe keeping. Men on the roof to throw the incendiary bombs to the ground . A railway line put into the cathedral to fill the insides with earth to protect it from shockwaves if bomb landed.
It felt like a special place I even saw that one the Bishops buried there was a Davidson.
I 'll finish this now as we off in a tube??!! To London Town!
