Friday, May 17, p.m.

In the afternoon we didn't have anything scheduled and could go and do whatever we wanted. Barbara and I went to King's College Chapel. We had been advised that the Chapel was the most important place to visit – and all were right! The vaulted 80-foot ”fan” (design) ceiling is magnificent, and the 26 sets of huge stained-glass windows were glorious. An organist was practicing (perhaps for the Evensong we could not stay for), and the music certainly added to our experience. We read panels of historical information until we OD'd and then proceeded to The King's Shop to cash in our 10% brochure discount where Barbara found the perfect Christmas doll for her daughter, Deborah.
