Wales to York, England (second show of tour)

Did my first bit of driving on the (wrong side) of the road yesterday. We drove from Wales up to York. 220 miles. It took us around four hours. It took a couple of hours getting used to driving on the left... some of the roundabouts are the most difficult parts, but so far, so good. Funny how small the distances are in England. We basically spand the country from the southwest to the northeast and it's like driving from DC to NYC. Played at a club in York last night. Hot and sweaty but fun and the people were excited and enthusiastic. We sheepishly played an encore because they demanded it. :) Day off today... we'll drive to Manchester (90 minutes away) in a bit and take it easy. It's been beautiful the past two days weather-wise. York is a really quaint, old town. Feels a bit like Colonial Williamsburg with older buildings and cathedrals.
