Geordie



We finally made it up to Newcastle to visit our friend Jamie, who's back in his hometown doing his Masters. He kindly showed us around the city including the 'new castle' and along the Tyne river, walking across the Millenium Bridge and visiting the Baltic art gallery.

Dave and I struck gold with a last minute booking through Hotels.com, finding a B&B Georgian manor house offering their best room for a budget rate. It had a 4 poster bed, a separate 'dressing room' and a huge bathroom with matching huge bath tub and breakfast included. It was a welcome change from the Travelodges where we usually stay!
