Travelling South- Beamish

 Was very interesting travelling south- it felt like we had left Scotland about 2 hours before we actually did- although lowlands/borders are 'scotland' they never feel like it to me! Leisurely trip back stopping in Northumberland. My birthday treat was a trip to Beamish- always a favourite. SJ is really starting to 'get' these live enactment places- whereas they are still slightly beyond the little two yet. It is probably fair to say that they all enjoyed the sweetmaking demonstration - particularly the free samples! The mine tour was also another hit as was the carriage ride that we had- for a treat -around the whole site
Waggonway ride OK- but they insisted on going in the covered green carriage- which they then couldn't see out of- as the windows were too high!
Then a lovely night at Boroughbridge- with cake and play.....and then home....and back to daily routine...
