Walking on the coast of Northumbria

A travel blog entry by wayfgrrl

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. ...

... station, and I was happy to arrive.

Berwick (say bear’-ik) boasts the only full circuit of town walls in England. In spite of the rain bucketing down, I walked some of them on the first day. Unfortunately, the museum at the historic Barracks was closed for the season.

Party time at the castle!!    Well not really, but we do get to walk around parts of the castle that are ...

Lindisfarne - The Holy Island

A travel blog entry by jsarracino

... Maybe at a different time of year, the feeling there is more holy, but in the middle of the summer, all it felt like to me was a tourist spot. There were people everywhere and no way to actually sit and contemplate or even enjoy any silence. I certainly did not feel the presence of the Divine any more strongly than normal. I felt it way more markedly at St. Lawrence Church in Warkworth. I am glad that ...
