My trip to the UK

Sorry, this particular post is not about Madeline, though I miss her very much! I am currently in Manchester, UK, heading home tomorrow. I’m on a work trip but got to see a variety of sights while I’ve been out here, including Yorkminster, Clifford’s Tower, and Wayne Manor from the most recent Batman movie.
