The UK is a pretty cool place. Definitely different than the States. First off, expensive as shit. And coins here are all different sizes for the amount. I was at the convenience store and the woman was like "Nah, Oi said itwas 2 lbs", and so i was like oh, ok here is the bigger coin...Nope. Not going to happen at all. Its all good though. Went to Salisbury, Wiltshire Uk today. I got some pictures of Salisbury Cathedral to show off. Good stuff all in all i think. I saw the Magna Carta, but of course no picture taking allowed. Even though everyone was taking pictures I didn't think that to be a great idea. Oh yeah, i took these pics with my g1. works pretty well with snapphoto.

This is the street leading to the Cathedreal, currently under construction as you can see. still i like the archway.

This is the new Font they have. It is like and infinity pool or something pretty chill.

This is the tomb of Edward Seymour and Lady Catherine Grey, sis to Lady Jane Grey, Queen of England for nine days before her execution in 1554.

The Church Tower. Tallest one in England.

Finally the outside from the greens. It is a beautiful church and hard to believe it is 750 years old. We looked at some other stuff too. Here are a few other photos i took from inside the Cathedral.

These flags are from various campaigns of the British Army. The one immediately to the left (just outside the pic, sorry) is from the Revolutionary War.

The Tomb of William Longespee. First person buried in the cathedral and half-brother of King John. He was an advisor during the drafting of the Magna Carta. The top of the sepulcher is made of stone, while the actual tomb is made of wood.
