The quest turned out to be a great way of going for a walk - it made us stop and look at things really closely, rather than just hurrying from a to b. And it was a chance for M to play about with her tiny camera, which she loves. The quayside is also a tip top place for scooting.
Anyway, our list. We needed to find:
Boats (we parked down near the Free Trade, and found fishing boats and a naval ship)
Lavender plants (M's suggestion)
Bridges (here's part of the Millennium Bridge)
A seagull (there were lots of them, roosting under the Tyne bridge)
A castle and a moat (so we wound our way up to Newcastle's castle, photographing castles on bins, embossed in walls, and set into the pavement, before finding the real thing). I would upload a photo, but the castles are all on M's camera rather than mine.
There was lots of scooter action, and a particularly good chocolate ice cream at Risis Ices. We may be repeating our day out again soon...
