Our Wonderful UK Excursion Part B

So...after we spent time in lovely, cultured, intricate Oxford, we took a train to Manchester, England. Manchester is most likely to be known to us Yanks for its football (soccer) team Manchester United. We were there for Shea to work at a conference for his work. I (Elizabeth)spent a lot of time in the museums there and just resting. The most memorable part of being in Manchester was that the UEFA cup final took place in Manchester's football stadium. This included 250,000 Scotsmen invading the city to cheer for their team.

Here are some pictures from that "industrial capital". The last picture is taken at the top of the Imperial War Museum of the North.
