1)Hi friends, I'm in England. I've come to visit David and his family for a week. In fact I'll only get to meet one member of his family, his elder sister Gina.Gina and David met me at the airport and brought me to their charming old house in Canterbury. (1). The first evening walk through the streets of Canterbury impressed me greatly. I expected it to be cold and rainy, but it is very warm. The narrow streets are lined by tiny medieval houses. David and I walked past the open windows and watched people having dinner, reading or just sitting by their fireplaces. We saw people going in and followed them. We got lucky and joined a party.Its history goes back to AD 597 when St Augustine, sent by Pope Gregory the Great, established his seat in Canterbury. In 1170 Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered in the Cathedral. The archbishop was so popular that soon after his death he was canonised, and ever since the Cathedral has attracted thousands of pilgrims from all over the world. Geoffrey Chaucer, ... (4), who is sometimes called the father of English Literature, immortalised these pilgrimages in his famous book The Canterbury Tales. I returned to the house as if in a dream, and Gina sent me straight to my room. She said I needed some rest! Then I overheard her and David discussing dinner.
