    • Day 7

      I seahouses.

      August 18, 2023 in England ⋅ 🌬 16 °C

      Next stop was Seahouses, it was time to stretch the legs once again, so we walked down to the pier and along it. Off in the distance we could see a castle, so it was back to the car to find out where it was.Read more

    • Day 6

      Friday 27th April

      April 27, 2018 in England ⋅ ☀️ 8 °C

      We are now back at base-camp otherwise known as Willerby in Willerby-land, Seafield in Seahouses. We arrived back at lunchtime and took advantage of the good weather by doing some chores. Warm and sunny and NO wind! Peter carried out an initial pressure-wash of the decks while Margaret cleaned up the inside of Wolfgang and took stock of food cupboards. We are now relaxing at the Ocean Club with a glass or two of white wine, catching up on emails and writing up the blog!

      We ar attaching a few photos taken from our camping pitch across to Holy Island. There is also a photo of Wolfgang with his new friend!

    • Day 4

      Easter Monday

      April 22, 2019 in England ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C

      Edward slept a little better last night, although still woke for the day around 6am as usual. After a slow ish start we set off for a walk, Edward in the sling. We walked past the harbour, which was still fairly quiet, up the hill and along the clifftop path, through the golf course, which was also quite quiet, and down onto the beach beyond. All the while Edward snoozed peacefully. Our return trip was the reverse and Edward woke while on the clifftop path. Once back in Seahouses he suddenly announced his hunger so we hastily made our way to our favourite feeding bench.

      We returned to the caravan via the Northumbrian Hamper, a shop in the town selling all manner of food and drink that one might put in a hamper, to buy ice cream to go with tonight’s pudding.

      Later in the afternoon we decided to go for yet another walk, this time using the buggy, and rather than contend with the hoards on a bank holiday afternoon we set off around the caravan site (being nosey) and then out along the road footpath towards Bamburgh. Turning around before the edge of Seahouses itself we headed back along the clifftop path on that side of the town, which was a little bumpy for the buggy.

      This evening we tested out the baby bathing facilities in Willerby... Edward was perhaps a little puzzled as to why he had his bath on the kitchen floor!

    • Day 13

      Such a Day About Nothing

      November 6, 2021 in England ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

      I woke up to the sound of the wind this morning, though it wasn't raining - yet. The main photo today is a phone panorama through the front window which, I'm sure you'll agree, is another great view to start a day. Then the rain came.

      There has been a pattern on this trip, of poor weather before lunch then quite pleasant afternoons and today was to be the same again. The wind howled and the rain poured and some brave souls still ventured out onto the beach to walk their dogs. Not many though.

      My morning was therefore dedicated to sorting out competition photos for the photographic society and also catching up on email that had accumulated whilst I was out in the wilderness. However, I was eventually pleased to see things brighten up and a hint of sunshine appear.

      I spent the afternoon on the beach, taking a stroll and attempting, badly, to find compositions in the rocks and pools. The highlight was the appearance of a rainbow which I captured on my camera, but forgot to take with my phone.

      The footprint photos today are a bit on the bland side because that's what my day has been like really. As I sit in the van and write this, the sky is clear outside but the van is being shaken by the force of the wind. Long-exposure night photography just doesn't work when you have to keep chasing your tripod across the landscape.
