A Bit Of Colour In Hull

We went for a walk along the Humber bank to parts of the city waterfront that I had never visited before. I was born in Hull but I had never walked the waterfront in the east of the city. This photo was taken from the lock gates to Alexandra Dock. It was a beautiful warm day with little wind and although I didn't have turkey for Christmas (we had a BBQ), I still felt the need to walk it off.

I was struck by the contrast between the colour of the ship (The Erasmusgracht) in from Bremerhaven I think and the sky which was mostly very clear apart from behind the ship and the buoys under repair.

The building behind the ship is Hull Gaol!

All in all we had a good, if a little overlong, walk on a cracking good day. Back to work tomorrow and I shall try to get a photo on my Blackberry from there
