Red Serpent


You saw the prow yesterday, this brightly coloured serpent is the rudder of the same Viking boat. Next to the boat is a Viking encampment which you can visit to hear more about life in York 1100 years ago.The week started with snow on the ground so blankets furs and fires are much in evidence. Also trainers as Viking shoes are not so waterproof.

  1. Since there is no way I can be there in person, I hope you get some pictures of the funeral boat on fire to share. Very interesting.
