Here I am, in one of the seaside towns in United Kingdom.

Whitby,
a very small seaside town in United Kingdom.




Here,
the people ride on boats, catch fresh fishes,
and sell them in the fish market.



Here,
the weather is unpredictable,
it can be sunny at a moment, and downpour at the next second,
but one thing for sure,
the wind is so strong and it spoiled my umbrella that day.

TOO COLD, so yeah.

Here,
we eat their famous Fish n Chips.
It is way different than the ones we try in Malaysia.
bigger portion, fresher, and tastier (even without tartar sauce)


I was a bit unlucky to have a smaller piece of Fish as compared to my friends. Their portion, is way bigger than this :/

Here,
we get to see the West Cliff and East Cliff of Whitby.
At the East side,
they have the 199 steps climb to the St. Mary Church (and graveyard),
followed by another magnificent and historical landmark named Whitby Abbey.

this is the east cliff. (spot the building at the top of cliff, its the church btw)

this is it, the St. Mary Church and graveyard.

followed by Whitby Abbey,
another historical monument.
*google to find out more. It has of course, stories behind it.

Here,
they also have colorful painted little storage rooms (along the beach),
where the fishermen store their fishing equipment in it,
and some are rented out for families who wish to store things in there, and have a family day there (picture below)




Here, 
they also have lots and lots of seagulls, 
just like how we have lots and lots of crows in Malaysia,
and that explains the printed image on the food boxes (picture below),
where it is stated, 'please do not feed the seagulls'





Here, 
they have grasses ( I know we can see grasses everywhere) but here,
we can lay on it. 
We can hardly find grasses that we can lay on in Malaysia. 



If I had a chance,
I would definitely drop by again.
(I am starting to love UK more)




*will be heading to Cambridge on coming Saturday.
Stay tuned.
