Newcastle-upon-Tyne

In all these years we'd not been to the Northeast of England. We took a weekend road trip to Newcastle.

Stopped in Durham on the way. Very pretty city with an impressive cathedral.

We really enjoyed Newcastle for the short time we were there. These are some photos from the walk into town from our accommodation along the river.

The Cumberland Arms. A pub we stayed at that had some character.

This is a little cat that hangs around the pub. His name is Root Beer [we named him that] He was sooo friendly and we loved him, but we had to leave him there.

Bye Root Beer!
