As would become a trend on this trip, Karen had to wake Deb up from her bus riding nap for this stop. She didn't even get off the bus! It was a little strange to stop for what you imagine to be the Great Wall of Britain, and it is some crumbling rocks next to what looked to the Seattle-ites like a stretch of Aurora Avenue (see the bottom). Still amazing to think it has been around for hundreds of years.
Citizens would steal rock from the wall when it was no longer in use. There is a house across the street that was built with stone from the wall. Now, we are off to Scotland and our first night in Edinburgh. Just a little more driving and we'll be there!
