Whitby in November

In Whitby at this the most beautiful time of year. Cold crisp sunny (mostly) days. Whitby very quiet compared to the summer although there are still a few visitors about. Our favourite place to eat, The Khyber, is closed for the winter. This is a great time to come. Great to not be at work. Still hounded by e-mail by the builders, bickering over the last bits of money I owe them.
This is a great trip. Thursday already though and that means only today and tomorrow left, so we have to plan carefully and make sure we stare at the sea enough.
Yesterday we went to look for Roseberry Topping. I was sure there'd be a bus that would drop us quite near. Well there was, sort of, but then it was a two hour walk and the only bus back to Whitby would only really allow for about an hour walk each way and then a very short lunch at The Fox. The journey there and back was so beautiful though. Steep hills, woods, streams and autumn colours.
More walking about today, before the weather takes a turn for the predicted much worse.
