Wonderful Whitby

 I couldn't do Thursday's art, because me and my family went to Whitby.

We went to the whale bone, which was really big. 

We went up the 199 steps up to the Abbey.

We also had 2 hotdogs, we had a yummy lemon top and we went to the pier.

Me and my mum threw a marble each into the sea, for my grumps, who i talked about on my first blog and he loved Whitby. But the best bit was when i found a fish tooth, a fossil and a king Charles the 6th 2 shilling coin, all on the beach!
