Steve outside 'The' gift shop, not just 'A' gift shop next door to Greystones   Down around the corner from the house   This is the 2-way street to the harbour...really...you should have seen me try to turn around in the dark the first night!   Mindy   The Endeavour, it was the best meal we had in our visit to the UK, fitting for our last night there                   You need reservations 6 weeks in advance to get in and it was worth it   One of the rental cottages to be let   A small garden   Steve outside the church courtyard   Staithes is still a fishing village...looks like home, lobster traps everywhere!                   Captain Cook lived here as a boy   The museum is filled with thousands of Cook artifacts, books, maps, posters, ships, etc....   For my buddies at our own WW Treatmant plant   The first part of the hill for the long trek to our parking spot at the top of the hill...   ...the second part was a killer....                   The trip back to the house was a little easier!   Another view of our village   Storm coming in as seen from the harbour   Our first day in Staithes was an idyllic warm sunny November day   You can see why the village was settled with the natural harbour and protection of the cliffs                   Fisherman launched their boats, called 'cobles' right from the beach.   I bet Don & Mindy are thinking of launching a coble...   Low tide   One of the entrances to the harbour and beach area   Looking towards 'The Beck', part of the old town area.                   West side of the harbour, near The Beck   Near the boat launch   After our leisurely stroll on the beach, we started our climb up one of the two streets in old town   Still climbing....   .....more climbing....                   ...wait for me....   Finally, the top of the hill, with some incredible views of the willage and harbour   Staithes harbour   Old town area                       A shot of The Beck from across the way   Steve & Jane on the seawall   On our way back from the harbour (lower left)   Steve & Jane on the bridge as seen by Don & Mindy                   Don & Mindy took the previous pic from the top of the cliffs above The Beck   Fishing cobles in The Beck   Don & Mindy as seen thru a 10x zoom lens   From the cliffs looking towards Greystones   One of the many colorful cobles                   Walking back down from the cliffs   View of inlet to The beck and the cliffs above old town   Setting sun   Cliffsides around Staithes   It was a nice area enjoyed on a striking fall day                   Many shipwrecks in the area...you can see why!   The Yorkshire Coast   Staithes   More coastline   Yorkshire has some of the best scenery ever
