After visiting the Dover castle, our group headed into Canterbury for the afternoon.
I'm in England!
Love all these beautiful old buildings of Canterbury!
Check out that building!
Even the door is crooked!
Historic building

Grand entrance into Canterbury grounds
If I ever make it back, I want to go to the Canterbury Tales museum. There wasn't enough time to see the cathedral and go here. So, we chose the cathedral.
My incredibly unhealthy lunch, but oh so good! When in England, eat Fish & Chips!

Stunning!
Beautiful pulpit
