As we mentioned in this post, we enjoy a bit of singing, a pastime which takes us to beautiful buildings and cities (and sometimes we’re even paid to go to these places!). A little bit off the beaten track, Exeter is a lovely city with plenty to do and a simply stunning cathedral.
Amazing vaulting in the main nave – and beautiful organ:
The exterior of the cathedral. It must here be mentioned that before Evensong they gave us cream tea!!! Best. Visiting. Choir. Treatment. Ever.
Close up of the organ and screen paintings.

We had a great weekend of singing, sight-seeing and socialising with friends. Definitely a recommended city if you’re down that way!
