May 25th 2008: Long and sunny weekend

Lisa and her mum came up for the long weekend to explore a bit of North Yorkshire.

The town hall in Northallerton, about half an hour from Yarm.

Aerial picture of Mount Grace Priory, the remains of a medieval monastery.


Each monk had its own little house with garden.

Reconstructed cell with reconstructed monk.



Then we went for a little drive through the North York Moors.



Sunday was a nice day again, we went to the coastal town of Whitby.

On top of the cliff there was a church....


...and the ruins of Whitby Abbey

That's the funkiest ice-cream van I've ever seen!
