England Highlights-Day 3: Norwich

On Day 3 we headed off to Norwich, a bigger town in England.  We took a nice hour train ride there and enjoyed some yummy hot drinks on the way.  At the train station there were all sorts of little stands serving hot drinks and snacks, yumm! :)

Our first site in Norwich was this beautiful view:

We then headed toward the market.  Norwich is known for their especially big market.  They had tons of stands at the market as well as shops "downtown."  

We then got some Pastys (you can pronounce it with a long "A" or short "A" we were told).  They are a croissant like breading filled with things like potatoes, beef, cheese, veggies etc. in all different combinations.  A very yummy meal!

Notice all of the Pastys lined up in the window:

We then made our way towards the big cathedral in town and saw some cool things along the way.

Old church:

Old streets:

Cool buildings:

A crooked building!: 

And....The Cathedral:

It was beautiful inside:

A Cloister (yay carcassonne):

Then we went to the castle in Norwich (ignore the glass elevator in the front of this picture):

Inside the castle it was kind of museum-ish:

Bathrooms!:

We then headed home.  In cambridge on our walk back from the train station we decided to stop in "The Anchor", a Torgerson favorite and get some dinner.  The Anchor is a local pub.  Pubs in England, we discovered, are very family friendly and serve dinner at pretty good prices (depending on the pub).  We had a few pub experiences while we were there as they are all over.

And on our walk home through a park we saw come cricket and I just had to take a picture!
