Travelog for: John West

Today we have come to look round Lindisfarne Castle

Because yesterday there wasn't enough time.

It is quite cosy inside..

It isn't dinner time (yet).


A nice cosy bed.

Room for music.

Today, we went to Berwick upon Tweed.

There is a geocache near this information board about the artist Lowry.

A nice clock

We've come to a museum

This is a pictoral map of the area.

The museum is on a honey farm, and there are lots of bee-related exhibits.

About honeybees

Inside a hive...

more on beekeeping

Nice baskets..

It is a corner shop, in the vintage section

Some interesting items here.

Old motoring stuff.

Old beer pumps and some sharp teeth!

It wasn't me who drank all the booze.

This is Chain Bridge, and it gives its name to the honey farm. And across the river is Scotland.

The bridge crosses the River Tweed

We'll walk across it....

And be welcomed into Scotland!

A boat trip....

That is a lighthouse over there on one of the Farne Islands.

Are there any seals over there?

This is Inner Farne

There's another boat.

After the boat trip, we came further down the coast.

That is Dunstanburgh Castle.

Where shall we go today?

We've come up to Scotland, to look at their National Mining Museum.

We've come inside the equipment shed

A transformer




Now we've come to look round the museum.

Some stuff.

Where shall we go today?

How about a quiet day in the caravan?

A beautiful day so we've come out to see...       

Warkworth Castle.        

Where shall we go today?

Sadly, we have to go home to Wales....

On the way back to Wales, we spotted this from the motorway

So came to have a closer look, even in the rain...

The weather cleared up a bit so we stretched our legs....

At the High Force waterfall

We've come to Grandma's for Christmas.

We are helping with the Christmas decorations. These lights work.

We've had a very quiet festive time....

taking us ages to complete two 1000 jigsaw puzzles.
