From London to Halifax

After the sprawl and noise of London, we made our way north to visit my home town of Halifax. I hadn't been back in 33 years! Nothing much had changed - the same cobbled streets, every street with a pub. I explored the parks in which I played as a boy and viewed the homes in which I lived. An emotional time.

On the second day we rode a steam train to the village of Goathland, better known in the TV series "Heartbeat" as Aidensfield.

Stay tuned for more to come.
