Friday 7th May
Today we drove over the North Yorkshire Moors to Whitby, stopping at The Hole of Horcum for lunch and a breath of very fresh air.

In Whitby we walked over the bridge and up the 199 steps to St Hilda's Church and Whitby Abbey.

It was a cold and clear day with very few people around and so we were able to get a really close look at the ruins which are more complete than we expected.

The colour of the stone was particularily striking and the detail in the carving was superb.

We walked back down the steps to the Magpie Cafe for fish and chips.
