For the Winchester

Leaving Dorset was very hard to do as driving 6 hours back towards work and responsibility hurt. So, we took a detour via Winchester. It's such a great city: so much to see but very compact.

Our first stop was the cathedral. Mainly because I wanted to see Song II by Antony Gormley again but sadly the crypt wasn't flooded. However, the cathedral itself is breathtakingly beautiful.















Song II by Antony Gormley. The crypt floods and at certain times of the year the statue seems to be floating in the water, in utter stillness. But not today.



Afterwards we raced up to see the Great Hall and the enjoyably fake Arthurian round table







Then paid our respects to Alfred the Great.
