We went camping this weekend with three other families. We had a really good time. The kids loved playing with their friends and enjoyed making new friends on the campsite. The campsite was great for them to run around. And Ross brought a fire pit which was great for the adults later on in the evening. Fun was had by all! We only camped about 15 miles outside of Newcastle, but the countryside was just gorgeous. Saturday, we went for a nature walk down by the river, played at the playground, waded and skipped stones in the river, and then unwound at the pub, before heading back to bbq our dinner, and sit around the campfire. Sunday, we went exploring at Prudhoe castle and had a lovely picnic. The weather was fabulous, warm and sunshine all weekend!
