Lindesfarne Day 1

Arrived on the Island in plenty of time, so no having to beat the tide!!  It was a bit breezy, but quite sunny.  Found the cottage, but were too early to get in.  So across the road from the cottage was the Lindefarne mead place! How cool is that!  So went straight across to buy a bottle!!

So that was a good start!  Went for a walk round, & found out where the pubs were & where we could eat - well you have to don't you?  Then found a lovely cafe for lunch - they do gluten free bread so I'm sorted!

After lunch went to look at St Mary's Church.  That place is so full of history it's amazing.  Walked round the outside of the Priory, as it's only open at weekends this time of year, & then went up the viewing tower to watch the idiots try to race the tide getting on & off the Island.  How more people don't get trapped I'll never know. 

Finally got onto the cottage - which is lovely & just chilled out for a while.  After tea went & checked the pubs out - well 2 of them!  Then home to relax.

Not a bad first day I must say!!
