Holiday Pics

Here are a few pictures taken on my holiday.

You can see the cruise ship in the background of this picture taken at the harbour in Palma.

First stop was Ajaccio in Corsica.

Then on to Rome (picture is of one of the ceilings inside the Vatican)

Next was Florence -

Pisa -

St Tropez (very expensive place)

And finally Barcelona - where it rained until we got back on the ship!

Was thinking of these places on my dismal cold cycle to work this morning!
Roll on my next holiday.

Whitby - I Love Whitby!

Am just back from a couple of days in Whitby.  It is such a lovely little seaside town.  I was looking forward to seeing the Abbey - and I have to say I wasn't disappointed.  It was well worth the 199 steps to get up to it!

Loved also seeing the colourful beach huts.

While we were there, we saw the rescue helicopter called out twice! A warning to be careful around the cliffs and seaside areas when on holiday.

All in all it was a lovely two days.  It is a kind of awkward place to get to from where I live and we decided to head back via Carlisle which involved going cross country from Whitby.  All was going well until we got near Penrith when there was a huge hold up - cue diversions and doubling back.  7 hours later (yes 7 hours!) arrived home.

York pictures soon.
