Day Trip to Harrogate - Optional Walk & Optional Meal

 

Making up for lost time it was 2 meetups in a row, with a bank holiday the following day it didn't matter what time I got home. It was a bit of a trek just to the start with a skylink to Nottingham (95 minutes) then a tram that I'd never used before . Met the group for the first time then got the nice coach to Harrogate arriving before midday. First time having to wear a mask for more than 15 minutes which took some getting used to.

We had several options on arrival, I joined the majority on a walk around the historic town, I knew nothing about the town and nobody told me much about it but I was just happy to be more than 5 miles from home for the first time in 6 months.

By 3PM we stopped in Weatherspoon's for food and first proper drink in a pub since March. Weather was ok but not great. It was good to meet a new crowd and discuss future meets. Had an hour before heading back.
