We went to Newcastle for a family birthday lunch on Saturday. We walked along the Quayside before we went to the restaurant.

Millennium Bridge
The Sage
The Quayside Seaside
We had a giggle at this. A sandy beach area has been made , complete with deck chairs, buckets and spades
The Rules
Doesn't say anything about illegal drugs so we assumed people could come here to shoot up
Beefy and the Millenium Bridge
We walked across the Millennium Bridge to the Gateshead side, then walked back again.
The Tyne Bridges from the Millenium Bridge
We walked about 6.4km and 50m ascent. We went for the meal, very nice it was too.We had taken our wild camping gear with us, we were going to get off the bus at Low Row to go up onto fells near Tindale which is in Cumbria. The rain started as we got past Haltwhistle but the low cloud decided the matter, there would be nothing to see along with getting soaked, we gave it a miss and went home instead
We had some nice wine to drown our sorrows
