Another great stay at York. Last two days a bit of concern with the river rising but it has to be hoped that last years flood defence work has improved the situation.
By no means a picturesque site but it’s all about the city and what’s available locally. Lots of history from walking the walls, pop into the Minister, visit the Castle Museum, the Jorvik centre , Railway Museum to name a few. Wander round the streets and the Snickleways to take in the history and the sites.
For shoppers a good selection in the city but for those wanting more the Vanguard Centre, Monks Cross and the Designer Centre close by.
Drive or bus to Thirsk, Scarborough, Filey, Malton, Pickering, Beverley, Leeds and others, if you want to see more of Yorkshire.
Numerous Restaurants, Cafes and pubs to feed the inner man and rest awhile. We all have our favourites.
A trip to the Theatre Royal was a first for us to see Murder in the Dark, a change to our usual evening entertainment.
Members who have used the site before will need no telling about the brilliant “Bishy” road shops just out the back gate that can cater for all your needs.
