Salisbury

Salisbury Cathedral

Today I took the train to Salisbury. It actually took quite a long time, and I feel like I didn't have much of a day, because by the time I'd baked, and then washed up and dressed and got to Poole (my aunty gave me a lift because she was already heading that way), it was 11.

I was super scared that I'd take the wrong train and end up in the wrong place, or somewhere that my ticket didn't allow me to go, because here with the trains you pay by where you're going rather than how much time you spending travelling.

But it's okay, I didn't take a single wrong train, or miss a train, or miss a stop :D

So, Salisbury. In the end I only spent about 2 and a half hours there, because, well firstly, there's nothing much to see, and secondly, I wanted to get home in time for dinner.

I went to the cathedral, and the oldest church in the town, then just walked the streets, went shopping (didn't buy anything, apart from a postcard), found a vintage clothes shop (like actually vintage) and a secondhand furniture shop. I LOVE old shops.

If I had more time, I would have just sat in a cafe and blogged, or wrote letters, or just watched people. Also kinda wish I had a local with me, like my cousins, so they could give me advice about where to go, what to see, what to eat lol.

There were lots of Indian restaurants. Btw.

I decided that I didn't want to go to Stonehenge after all, because it was another £15 and a half hours' bus ride from Salisbury, which, after 2 hours on the train, I was not particularly keen. I didn't want to go see it THAT much...
