Latest trip... Northumberland coast - part one

Spent a few days up in Northumberland, hence no recent posts. For those not living in the UK, Northumberland (one of the counties of England) is on the east side of the UK and stretches from just above Newcastle up to Berwick-on-Tweed and therefore the Scottish Border. Away from the stunning coastline the county gets more hilly with the Cheviot Hills. Apart from the stunning landscapes there's lots of other tourist related things to see and do - Hadian's Wall being the best know, Holy Island of Lindisfarne, Bamburgh Castle - once home to the Kings of Northumbia - (pictures below), Cragside House etc.....

 Above and below are pictures of Bamburgh Castle - one day playing with the sea mist which added something to the view while below on another day

Above is the tidal estuary on the land side of the coastal village of Alnmouth - needless to say I soon found my way onto the sand and mud and heading for the boats and the evening sunlight...

More from this trip in a later post...
