Canterbury Tales

by Dorka Kovacs

25^th September

On Wednesday we went to Canterbury. We met at 13.15 and got on the bus. It didn't take a long time to get there. When we arrived, we were separated into 2 groups and Tim and Eve, two teachers from KSE, guided us through the historic town centre. We walked round the famous sights e.g. The Ducking Stool which was used in the Middle Ages for finding out who is a witch or disciplining intolerant wives by immersing them in the water. Later we met the other group outside the Cathedral. The visit to the Cathedral was really amazing, we saw the Cloister, the place where Thomas Beckett was murdered and the splendid gothic architecture really took our breaths away. 

After visiting the Cathedral we got some free time to shop or do something else. Unfortunately there wasn't enough time to walk around the shops as we had to return to the coach. Canterbury is a beautiful city, I'd like to see it again.
