Newcastle

Day one

It was a long journey leaving at 7.30am and arriving in Newcastle at 1pm, Alices dad met us at the station and then we went back to hers to rest a little before we took a trip around the allotments near her house and then had a lovely home cooked dinner, then bed to prepare ourselves for the busy day ahead tomoro.

Day Two

It was an early morning when we arrived at Tynemouth market which was amazing - i bought two books on the world atlas and then 3 maps i really do love maps!!! Then we went to an amazing little bookshop before seeing the Tyneside coastline. Then after a spot of lunch we went to the Northern print studios where there were some beautiful woodcuts. Then lastly we went to Hardians famous wall which you can see below, Alice and I even stood on the wall after not seeing the "do not climb on the wall" sign hmm oh well! We were all very tired after that but still managed to find some time to make bows that night after dinner :)
