Linda and Graham came to stay for a few days at the end of May Bank Holiday and on one of the days we went to Whitby. The weather wasn't very kind to us as it was very windy and quite cold but we did have a really great day out. Graham had never been there before so we fitted in as much of Whitby as we could to show him around
Vic on the beach
A bus that does trips around the places of interest
A wire sculpture of a fisherman
Climbing the 199 steps up to the abbey and hanging on so we didn't get blown away
Old gravestones at the top of the steps in the church yard
Very windy here but it felt good to let it just blow me away
More gravestones at the back of the church
Resting
Graham looking sad cause he hadn't brought his new camera
Inside the historic church-well worth a visit
There were allsorts of historic events going on in the abbey grounds but it was too windy for most of them
Archery practice
We took the hard route down--the road is very steep and quite slippery in parts--we love excitement!
Goth Morris dancers
More Morris Dancers
--and there's more
Not sure if that was the drummers stomach or padding
Never too young to start
Never too old to do it either and these ladies were so fit
Bells on their toes.
Hope you enjoyed Whitby and will be able to visit there one day.
