Peterborough's cathedral:
Peterborough Cathedral, properly the Cathedral Church of St Peter, St Paul and St Andrew – also known as Saint Peter's Cathedral – the seat of the Bishop of Peterborough, England, and is dedicated to Saint Peter, Saint Paul and Saint Andrew, whose statues look down from the three high gables of the famous West Front. Founded in the Anglo-Saxon period, the architecture is mainly Norman, following a rebuilding in the 12th century. With Durham and Ely Cathedrals, it is one of the most important 12th century buildings in England to have remained largely intact, despite extensions and restoration.
Peterborough Cathedral is known for its imposing Early English Gothic West Front (façade) which, with its three enormous arches, is without architectural precedent and with no direct successor. The appearance is slightly asymmetrical, as one of the two towers that rise from behind the façade was never completed, but this is only visible from a distance, while the effect of the West Front upon entering the Cathedral Close is overwhelming.
From the mid-12th century monk, Hugh Candidus, we have a detailed record of the contents of the Abbey's reliquaries , which included two pieces of swaddling clothes which wrapped the baby Jesus, pieces of Jesus' manger, a part of the five loaves which fed the 5,000, a piece of the raiment of St Mary, a piece of Aaron's rod, and relics of St Peter, St Paul and St Andrew - to whom the church is dedicated.[8]
Monastic life:
Most famous, however, was the supposed arm of St Oswald, which disappeared from its chapel, probably during the Reformation, despite a watch-tower having been built for monks to guard its reliquary), and various contact relics of Thomas Becket, brought from Canterbury in a special reliquary by its Prior Benedict (who had witnessed Becket's assassination) when he was 'promoted' to Abbot of Peterborough.
All of these created an aura of great importance around what is today Peterborough Cathedral, making it at the zenith of its wealth just before the Reformation the sixth largest monastery in England in terms of income with 120 monks at it and departments including an Almoner, an Infirmarian, a Sacristan and a Cellarer.

Cambridge!! (:
Saturday we were in Cambridge, our guide was Jim, He told us about the people, the universities (the subjects, homes ..) taught us outside the homes of students and entered into a chapel. In my free time many went to market or to the mall, others went to the river boats. We met some very friendly Spanish musicians! in Cambridge was something cold ... forget bad day for the coat at home.
The Boys were dropped three times the soccer ball into the river across from where he had hoped the bus jaja all passers-by stared at us. Well, that I did in Cambridge.

DAY IN PETERBOROUGH'S CATHEDRAL
Hi ! we're Davinia and Carmenmary.
Today we've been in Peterborouhg's Cathedral.
There , was buried Katherine Of Aragon.
Is smaller than Seville's Cathedral but is very big too.
In the walls there are people's names who worked there.
In our opinion , the most interesting was the room where there are the three sisters' names: Martha Bristow , Ethel Sarah and Hannah Bristow.
Well,we'll write more things about our jorney in Peterborough.
