"Here let us stand, close by the cathedral... here let us wait" ! (I did Thomas-a-Becket at school!)
We met at the gates of the Cathedral (me and P were only a few minutes late!) Natalie who had organised this little get together was busy on her phone when we spotted her. Chris and Win had gone off in search of a cash machine!
Myself (Mariajoy) Petra (PetraE) Win (RhineRoll) Natalie (nhcram) and Chris (chrishc) enjoyed a fabulous Italian dinner! Thanks for organising this Natalie! Great to meet you all again and *well done* to Chris! - the only one in the photo wearing his VT badge :))
And at the end of a fabulous day... a fabulous sunset! - somewhere in Kent!
- Pros:Historic, fun, lively and buzzy

I'm quite sure that I have been to Canterbury once a million years ago! Hmm, ice cream - I think summer should come soon :))
hmmm, cathedral is very nice!!
Thanks for your useful tips - trying to decide where to take my Dutch friend when he visits again
Canterbury is just great, isn't it? Wish I had had more time there to do sightseeing.
I just love Canterbury - and I love your page - beautifully done!
Very nice pics of the Cathedral and the old castle ruins! Also, the town itself looks charming and I bet you are right about that scenic boat ride!
Nice, especially the castle. My dad was born in Castle Street where the car park is now! Time I took another trip to Canterbury!
Lovely pics, Maria, it really comes across well what a beautiful day it was. I still need to sift my stuff expecting not that many tips but quite a few travelogues :-))
So you too had some excellent weather. Those icecreams look very tasty. I spotted Maria's place, but it was quite busy so I decided to settle for a smoothie at M&S. Nice pics here!!
Icecream! It looks like a German schooltrip. LOL. PJ
