We wake to torrential rain battering against the windows. Luckily, it's a shorter day today & we don't have to check out until 11.00am. Looking at the weather radar, the rain is clearing by about 11.00am.
After a leisurely breakfast, we pack our bags, and the rain is easing so we leave the little house by the sea, straight onto the promenade & the coast path.
Soon we will be in open land, passing the narrow-gauge railway, finally losing sight of Spurn Point across the River Humber. Now walking beside the North Sea with huge wind farms, which, Fact one revolution of a single tower can create enough energy to power a house for up to 29 hours!
The rain has gone & it's fine walking weather, we pass military firing ranges an area where the RAF practice dropping bombs on targets which are located close to the shoreline.
Nothing eventful happens today & we don't take any photos!
Arriving at Donna Nook we turn off down the road to seek out our accommodation. We are early & have to wait for the check-in time, while waiting, we talk to some of the other guests returning from their days out.
Our host returns from walking his dogs, letting us into our apartment & giving us some information about where we can get a good Italian evening meal.
We do indeed go to the Italian restaurant, I have their special, haddock, chips & a pint all for the stately sum of £15.00 Lesley has a huge pizza.
A customer who was disgruntled at waiting for their food marched into the kitchen to be swiftly escorted out by the chef, followed by a shouting match they then left, still hungry!
