Goodbye Resolution

One of Cook's ships represented on the plinth of his statue overlooking Whitby harbour. My resolution has failed, and this may be the last entry on this photo blog. It looks very much as though we will be settling in York (see JorvikDailyPhoto) and won't get to Whitby often enough to be able to maintain this blog. Thanks for your visits and comments. If any Whitby reader would like to take this over, please let me know!

New Year's Resolution

A long overdue picture of Captain James Cook, this first one from behind to take in the 199 steps, church and abbey. The Resolution is Cook's ship, sculpted into the pedestal. There was no obliging seagull perched on his head today, but plenty of evidence of their presence.
