Manchester - Day 3

After breakfast we walked down to the University corridor and visited the Manchester Museum, which was big and very interesting.





It had a live animal section as well.



We tried and failed to find the Whitworth Art Gallery, later finding out it was much further down the street.

We caught the free Metro Shuttle bus back to town, and visited Manchester Cathedral.



Inside they've just had a brand new organ installed.



The cathedral visitor centre has a very old bridge inside it called the Hanging Bridge, dating back to the 15th century.



We then walked round the Arndale Centre, where Scott bought a pair of shoes in Marks and Spencer and Shirley played in the Lego shop.



We went to the Waterside pub for lunch. We shared a Chicken and advocado wrap and chips.

After this we went to the Machester Art Gallery, which had a pretty eclectic mix of stuff.





We went back to he room to chill for a bit.

We went out in the evening, first to the Old Monkey pub, then to the Croma Italian restaurant, which was surprisingly good and reasonably priced.

Shirley had buffalo mozzarella with tomato and basil, Scott had and aubergine and cheese bake for starter.

For main, steak pizza and and courgette and goats cheese pizza and a nice bottle of Scicilian red.

For a last drink we went back to the City Arms pub again.
