Getting ready to depart Hull

Had a fab day off yesterday - Cath and I went to York for the day, neither of us having been there before. It was brilliant and we both thought York is such an amazing city / town. It was lovely to be ashore for a whole day but it’s great to back again getting ready for our next leg up to Newcastle - our last main stopover in England. I can’t believe we’ll soon be in Scotland. The time has gone so quickly, it seems just yesterday that we left Cowes in the glorious sunshine. Thankfully the sun has come back to shine on us again, all week in Hull we have had cracking weather, it’s been brill.
Our new crew have arrived and are settling in - in fact making the teas and coffees - always a bonus! Heading over to the yacht club this evening for pizza and then early start - what’s new - in the morning off to Scarborough.

Sunny weather so nice train journey over from Leeds as I start my leg of this incredible voyage .As someone who has worked in Hull for many years it is interesting to see it from the harbour.All the guys settling in well and chilling out prior to the long haul to Scarborough tomorrow so fish and chips might be the order of the day when we dock as there could be a few hungry mouths to feed and after that I will take them to the harbour bar for some delicious home made ice creams (no not the sort of bar you were probably thinking of!)
Adios for now.
