Comments

April 19, 2025,Von Sandsend nach Whitby

A beautiful day at the beach between Sandsend and Whitby on the East Coast of Yorkshire.
We walked in windbreakers and headbands, others swam in the water in swimming trunks.

The fireplace, sink, and bomb are still preserved in the ruins of the small house. Unfortunately, the resident was killed in the attack.
