Walking on the coast of Northumbria
Based in Bamburgh, our group of 10-plus-guide Walking Women were introduced to the region by learning about the local heroine, Grace Darling. In 1838, at age 22, she and her father rowed out from their lighthouse and rescued several survivors from a shipwreck. In the museum dedicated to her we saw the actual coble they rowed, and it's big and heavy – how she did it in stormy seas, I don’t know. Unfortunately, she died four years later. ...

The plane was late landing (had to circle around a while waiting for our turn to land); Immigration went quickly; collecting baggage entailed a bit of a wait; I'd bought online a ticket for the Heathrow Express train to Paddington, which came within about 10 mintues; I ...

Alnwick - Lions, Cellars, and Dukes!
... because Alnwick castle has never been taken by invading forces. It has brilliant strategic defenses, especially at it's main gateway called the Barbican. I will spare you the details of it in this blog, but ask me about it later. All in all, a great day in Alnwick, back on the double decker bus we got and headed back to Berwick. The bar has definitely been raised for castles in England. Ryan ...
