I don’t believe all the stories about England being cold wet and bleak. We have had 10 days of mostly sunshine and no rain. Today in York it was about 18-20, a beautiful spring day. We’ve either been really lucky or its all lies☺ We have just about finished all the shopping we need to do for the van and we can get on with the job of being tourists. We’ve bought tools, wheel lock, food stuffs and containers etc. We are limited on space but I reckon we are here for 12 months and there are some things I wont do without.
Everyone up this way seems to want to chat to us and find out whether we’re Aussies or Kiwis so we find ourselves talking to random people all over- very friendly people.
We are staying in the Ashfield caravan park in Dunnington just outside York for the 3rd night and we’re off to Whitby in the morning – Captain Cooks birthplace.
Highlights today: Organised some van appointments for Thursday (with a kiwi fellow) when we had been told we would have to wait till end of May.
Lowlights today: Going into a really cool looking pub for a beer only to find it really ordinary inside…bummer!
I have heard that its all very unseasonable, enjoy it as Mother Natures little gift for your arrival!
