Pilgrimage, Part 1: London, Canterbury, and Ely

The rector of my old Anglo-Catholic parish leads a pilgrimage to Walsingham every two or three years. In May 2003 I was among the pilgrims who visited London, Canterbury, Ely, Walsingham, and Oxford. All of these photos were taken with a 35mm camera and transferred to a CD as part of the film processing. I originally posted them on the Kodak website shortly after the pilgrimage, but they could only remain up there as long as someone purchased prints of the photos every six months, so they evaporated sometime in 2004. Anticipating that demise, I copied all of my photo captions to a file so that I could recreate it when the opportunity arose. This first post (of two) covers the pre-Walsingham portion of the pilgrimage. We stayed in London, made a day trip to Canterbury Cathedral, and stopped at Ely Cathedral on our way to Walsingham. The second post will cover our time in Walsingham. I don't seem to have taken any pictures in Oxford.
