Home via England

Before heading back to Australia, I spent a week seeing family and friends around England.
First stop was the 2008 European Capital of Culture - Liverpool. Pictured here is a series of locks linking the Liverpool-Leeds Canal to the River Mersey.


Then further north to Cumbria. Here is Carlisle Castle.

and finally down to London where I had a great day with a group of friends for a spontaneous afternoon trip south to Kent. Below is another castle - Leeds Castle, Kent.

As I post this, I am safely back in my home town of Melbourne.
