Week end in Wakefield

I stayed with my friends E & J in Wakefield. Saturday afternoon we went to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. As I mentioned here it's really worth a visit. They have an indoor exhibition and a tea room as well. Sunday morning E & J introduced me to Hepworth Wakefield. It's the largest purposely built museum outside London. Mainly dedicated to Barbara Hepworth who was a sculptor from Wakefield . For more info see : http://www.hepworthwakefield.org/. In the afternoon with E. we had a stroll along Thornes Park in Wakefield. J. was at her choir rehearsal for the performance in the evening of Handel's Messiah in the cathedral. It was very good and the venue was fully packed.
