We stayed at Seton Sands Caravan Park near Edinburgh in August 2002.
The
Angel of the North, near Newcastle.
Two views inside the caravan.

Spent
an enjoyable day with Uncle Alan and Aunt Margaret. After an incredible lunch
at the house, they treated us all to a trip round the 'Dynamic Earth' and 'Walking
with Dinosaurs' exhibitions. Then a guided tour to Arthur's Seat, with panoramic
views across the City of Edinburgh.
Charlotte in Alan and Margaret's garden.
Matthew being stalked by a dinosaur.
We took a different route home, travelling down the A68 and eventually rejoining the A1 near Newcastle. We stopped briefly at Carter Bar border viewpoint on the way home, to listen to a lone bagpiper and take in the view. Just below Newcastle we stopped again for another picnic at the Angel of the North.
