En route to Linconshire

Lincoln Castle

Lincoln Cathedral

FIRE!
This is our 1st trip with Bradford University. At first, Ayah hesitated to join but with constant persuasion he obliged to Mummy's plea. It was a beautiful sunnny Saturday morning, Nuryn and Zeidan especially has been giving full cooperation from the start until almost towards the end.

We were scheduled to meet infront of the Uni at the city, at 9.00 am..the coach departed at 9.30 and thus we embark to Lincoln that is 2 hours away from Bradford. For the first time, we witnessed the county scenery up close and personal. It was a spectacular view, with arrays of green field along the road.

At about 12.15 pm we reached our destination, and start exploring at pur own pace. passengers were dropped infront of the Cathedral, the 3rd largest in England and it is used to filmed Da Vinci's Code to replace Westminister Abbey...

Right at the back of the Cathedral is the 900 years old Lincoln Castle. Nuryn was psyched with the thought of meeting a real beautiful princess in the castle..haha..

So we've explained to her that it's a very old castle and that they "moved" to a new castle and can't be disturbed because they are busy..after exploring the castle for a whole hour we had a quick lunch at the cafe, and resumed our journey outside..Did get a bit lost, so we took the bus instead to go to the marina in the city..

At the Marina, we spent the whole afternoon milling around, going in and out of shops..walking down the cobbled streets feel like we're acutally living life in the medieaval era..The city is really beautiful and you can tell that alot of history events have taken place. We left Lincoln at 5.30 pm, overwhelmed with pride. Looking forward for the next trip...
