Lincoln


Greetings from the ancient Cathedral city of Lincoln.  We've come a bit east and a bit south, across the mighty Humber Bridge to get here and we've made an interesting discovery ...

It's possible to have the odd night in a hotel or B&B even on a camping/caravaning trip!  In fact, we find, you can pay GBP40 a night in a fancy caravan park (but with no hot water) and then find accommodation for GBP45 a night in the heart of Lincoln with breakfast included, free WIFI and free parking.  (Actually for 45 you get a shared bathroom, but not shared with as many people as in a caravan park.    We paid 55 and have a modern ensuite.)  So we're cosy and comfortable despite the typically English weather that has now returned, and we're 4 minutes walk from the incredible Cathedral (which was the favourite of Judy's mum).

The photo shows us 'taking tea' at No. 1 Castle Hill, right by the Cathedral.  Rob thinks this is a pretty impressive-sounding address.

We're starting to settle in to a slower pace.  At this rate it could be several days before we get back to France.

Regards,

Judy and Rob
