York - May 2012

 
After making the decision to go on a van tour next year, we needed to fulfil the dream by actually getting a van! We found a decent van on ebay and this was the time to go and pick it up. It was up North so after picking up the van we made our way to York to have a look around. After looking around York, we headed to Sherwood Forest where the legend of Robin Hood came about.
