Canterybury Cathedral

Spent Sunday May 17 in Canterbury, viewing the Cathedral and the Marlowe monument, among other things.  It’s a good as an overlarge church gets, almost the equal of Notre Dame (not quite as sinuous) or St Peter’s (not quite as monumental).  But Canterbury has a great melodrama, and I must admit seeing the place where poor loyal Thomas Becket lost his head was quite moving.  I’ll post some pictures on the area later, including the Marlowe monument (he was born in Canterbury, which I hadn’t remembered.)  The Marlowe theater was showing “Cats.”
