Thursday blues?
Are the thursday blues a thing?? Even though it was my day off yesterday I am so stupidly tired. I want to go and lay in a dark room and listen to whale music. Actually, now I have written that, I really do!
I feel like a trip to Whitby is needed very soon. Its my favourite place, it feels like home. Its our dream to retire to a cottage by the sea one day. Now we own our home that feels so much more achievable.
Whitby calms my soul. It started as a Goth weekend visit and ended up being so much more than that. I have always loved being by the sea. The sea air, the sound of the waves breaking. It feels a million miles away from everything. We have done all the tourist things. The Abbey, 199 steps, Dracula Experience, Magpies, Goth Weekend, spent hours walking round the Whitby Jet jewellery shops. Now when we go we have our favourite places to hang out. A coffee from the little cabin at the bottom of the Kyber Pass that we take to the benches above the beach to watch the surfers, then a walk across to bridge to mooch along Sandgate. A shandy in The Board Inn at the bottom of the 199 steps and then a walk down Church Street for a visit to Mister Chips. After that we go back over the bridge and I nag my husband to let me go wild on the 2p machines until I win something. We used to go to Emmas Diner for tea before the long drive home but she closed last year. We will have to try the new one that has opened in its place next time we go.
Where is your favourite place to go to get away from it all?
