But we do have a really lovely memory of a shared family moment. Sell to me all that is lovely to see there :-) We weren’t taken with Herne bay when we visited it many years ago.

Yes, go and see it next time to make full use of your EH pass. :) I went to Chatham Historic Dockyard twice this year. Oh there are few Kentish towns that can be visited on the same day. I walked from Herne Bay to Whistable. And from Broadstairs to Ramsgate, on two separate occasions. Treated myself Morelli's gelato in Whistable and Broadstairs. You must try Morelli's.

There is so much to see that even Mr C spent a long time looking around and exploring. The Cathedral is amazing, you would love it.

Next time you are in St Albans you really must go inside the Cathedral, it is such a special place. We are thinking we might go back there for the Easter service next year :-) I look forward to seeing what you have been up to. I know how it feels to have a backlogue of content. I have to catch up with some of my past adventures (including Rome). Thank you Mandy, I am glad you enjoyed catching up on my posts.

I've been to the cathedral but never inside, so your photos and narrative are greatly appreciated. L'Italiana sounds just lovely - I so enjoy when Italian restaurants make traditional fare (but my aunt and uncle had a famous Italian eatery in Jo'burg so I guess I was spoiled) I've been catching up with all your posts over the past month. I loved the posts about the Basilica di Santa Maria - how exquisite it is inside and that nativity scene is so intricate in detail I hope to be back to writing soon - it's difficult to know where to begin How lovely – I’ve only been to St Albans a handful of times but we always walk through the park.

I am enjoying visiting Cathedrals both new and old (to me). St Albans is now one of my favourites. There is also Roman history and other history to be explored within the town.

Everything about it was wonderful in different ways.
