Hull, England July 2016

It was a short train ride from Beverly, England to Hull, England.
 We found my Great Grandfather, Godfrey Scott Midgley, on this sign in the Hull train station honoring those who served in World War 1 and left from this station.

 I believe it was Richard who was an extra in this movie and walked down these stairs. 
 

 This frog is like the moths from a few years ago.  At the time they had them scattered all through the town.  This is one they kept by the museum we went to.

 This little park was outside the museum.  We were able to walk around the block to this little shop and get amazing sandwiches, "crisps" and drinks for lunch.


 This was a garbage can by the picnic tables we ate on.


 This train says "Gordon" on it!  Dad always shows up somehow!

More information about the moths.

 We visited Holy Trinity Church in Hull.  It was spectacular!



English mailboxes! This one happened to be out of order but we saw other ones. They were doing construction and improvements all over the city as Hull was selected as the UK City of Culture for 2017.
