We were both up early so out of the house by 7 am to keep disturbing Darren and Tina down to a minimum. Lots of cafes closed but Sunny's was open so we had breakfast there. We caught the bus at 8.45 am and arrived at Whitby about an hour later. The day was grey and the bus windows steamed up but it was entertaining, especially the corners and hills the bus had to negotiate! As I said, it was grey, but the town still looked good.
We wandered around a lot, Mike was surprised that just how many Whitby jet shops there were! The post office was really quaint.
We saw the steps up to the abbey but decided against the climb this time!
We wandered around for hours, having several refreshment breaks. On the was back to the bus station we came down a path that should have been called 'church street'!
We caught the bus back, it really struggled up one of the 25% hills! We wandered through town when we got back, we were glad of a sit down when we arrived here! I took a picture of the lovely tape measure I bought yesterday. It looks like a bell but you use the stem to wind the tape measure back in.
Not much I can add the the very detailed explanation of our day out, apart from it was really enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to hearing Vicarage's sermon tomorrow, and walking by the sea.
I'm also looking forward to a toasted sarnie that's cooking as I type :-)
Slightly better result this time!!
