Helmsley, Rievaulx Abbey, Rievaulx Terrace & Temples


We were getting to the end of our holidays and still places on our list to visit. Thursday three places!!!
Helmsley
 Rievaulx Abbey
Rievaulx Terrace and Temples 

I have a tip, before going out for the day check you have batteries and that they are charged up. Silly Mom had left two batteries for the SLR back at the holiday let as she had forgotten to charge them up over night. We get to Hemsley, take one photo and the SLR died!! No worries we have the point and shoot with us, get that out to find the batteries almost out to!! Don’t worry mom says I had a spare. The problem was the batteries don’t last that long. Would we have enough charge to last the day?
Well we did on the very last photo the flashing light came on. Good timing I say.
So its thanks to the carry me anywhere camera for letting us show you the photos of our day.

Robin Hoods Bay




On the same day as meeting Magic we took a trip to
Robin Hoods Bay

It’s a very steep walk to get down to the town and beach. The tide was out and I was hoping to get Tess in the sea for the first time. We settled for paddling in the rock pools. Later on, we had a rest at The Bay Hotel while Mom got the ok from Dad to go off and take photos. The photos of us on the beach playing, yes we are playing, didn’t come out that well as mom didn’t change the camera setting, but we thought we'd put them on the set anyway.
We follow "J on Tour", and last year he did a post about Robin Hoods Bay. There's a link at the bottom of this post.
