Day 06 – York
After spending the morning continuing our look around Lincoln it is time to hit the road again this time bound for York. I have decided to take a slightly indirect route so as to drive over the Humber bridge. The first surprise is the Humber bridge is a toll bridge, so it is a scramble for coins, turns out the toll is 2.70.
The bridge looms large as you drive around the sweeping bend, a very impressive sight. It is 2.2 klm long and is currently the 5th longest single span suspension bridge in the world, you get a fantastic view over the river as you drive across.
After crossing the bridge it is a short drive to York, our hotel is within easy walking distance of the center of town and a short walk to find an Irish pub for a meal and a pint. The light are on and they shimmer on the river Ouse as we walk back to the hotel.
