Great coffee in Chester

A quick update:

Toiday is a transit day. We travelled from Caernarfon in Wales to York in Northand England for the next instalment of what is fast becomong 'James A: railways across Europe' - the York Rail Museum.

We stopped in Chester to stretch our legs and look around. Very nice old town, and as usual we wish we had longer to explore.

On the plus side, we found a Cafe Nero, which has the best coffee of any francise in England. No match for the good Melbourne cafe's but better than the usual dishwater we have been served. In some places.

From Chester to York was a bit tedious. A heavy rain dump and traffic accidents slowed the motorway to a crawl and our attempts to circumnavigate only led to queueing through small villages.

Anyway, 4 hours on the road and we are finally here. More English quaintness!
