A weekend short break in Northumberland. Lovely weather. Decided to see if we could make the trip to the Farne Islands. I first made this trip on a zoology field expedition when I was doing my A-levels. In the picture above the boats are waiting at Seahouses Harbour ready to go and pick up their passengers.
The Longstone Lighthouse from where Grace Darling and her father launched a rowing boat to rescue survivors from the wreck of the
Forfarshire. Although the weather was fine the sea conditions were in the skipper's words "a bit lumpy."
Brownsman Island.
The stained glass window of St Cuthbert's Chapel on Inner Farne.
The St Cuthbert III waiting at the jetty on Inner Farne to take its passengers back to Seahouses.
