Day 10 was a VERY windy walk from Ravenscar to Scarborough. According to my Fitbit, it was our longest walk of the trip, just over 16 miles and 39,000 steps. We looked back on Raven Hall under a menacing sky -


 
Due to a landslip, we were diverted into the trees (out of the wind) -
 

When we got back to the coast, we walked by a Coast Guard Station and this Radar Installation  -
 

 
The views along the rugged coast vary but are always beautiful -

 
Except for our detour into the woods, we battled strong wind all day; it was hard to walk straight along the path with the wind constantly blowing out to sea; we ate lunch at a bench in the wind; there was no escaping it -
 

Finally, we made it to Scarborough, but we still had three miles to walk around the point where these castle remains are -


Tomorrow's walk should be around 10 miles. And we hope the wind is more cooperative. Still, we are thankful to have avoided rain for the last few days.
