17th July- Whitley Bay & Tynemouth
On the 15th of May Trueblue showed me pictures of Whitley bay and the Snt Marys Lighthouse. It was so nice that i just have to see more of it for myself. and after all i am a BeachManiac.So yea. on my last day in newcastle. i went to whitley bay and tynemouth. Adelene took me there. Trueblue had to pick her parents.
a great experience. european beaches are way different from the tropical beaches we have back home Malaysia.the beaches here are more rocky. the sun is bright in summer but u dont feel hot cos of the wind. 
Picture of me and adelene before we take our long walk down to snt mary lighthouse.
u see it? Snt Mary in a distance. The beach is so empty hor. the beach is just gorgeous man. simply simply gorgeous. blue clear sea water. wonderful skies. the smell of salted air. and the music the waves make. I love the beach!!!!!
top view of whitley bay.
See how clean the seawater is. took tons of picture that day. just sceneries of the beach. the blue sea.
random picture
i wonder why did they build this little bridge by the beach. adelene is fascinated by it.
after an hours walk down the beach.we see snt marys nearer.no complains. just love the feel of sand between ur toes.
Snt Mary's Lighthouse. hundred years over. in this picture. the sea has a low tight ( is that how we spell it?). so it is visible to see the bridge that leads to the snt marys light house. but when they is high tight. you cant even see the little bridge that leads to snt marys because it will all be covered with sea water. people say that it is difficult to go back to land again after 6pm because of the high tight.
i saw wedding photos taken here in trueblue's computer. and the scenery is just so wonderful with the high tight covering the bridge.
this is the view when we reach to the top of snt mary's light house.
me looking out from the lighthouse.
this is where the light came from.
another random picture
see. i told ya the beach is kinda rocky near the lighthouse.
After whitley bay. We went to tynemouth. Its a castle located somewhere along whitley bay. when we reach there.There is some English festival goin on. it was really lively. So unlike pesta pulau pinang. there live jazz bands every where. lotsa musicians everywhere. Ppl doing magic shows. Old classic 60s singers. and most of all we get to go into the tynemouth castle for free. Usually we have to pay but on that day we went.It was for free!
wopeseey wrong photo. haha. random photo taken at whitley bay.
as u can see.the beach at tynemouth is a lot more lively than whitley bay. lotsa ppl enjoying themselves by the beach..soaking up the sun.
Live crazy jazz band. their music is so so so good.they danced while they played too.
this guy is some crazy dude. who is goin to sleep on top a bed of sharp nails. and let heavy stuff put onto him while he is laying on the nails.
You see his saxophone?!!! thats a yanagisawa! a 991 Series.My model! i miss my yana
tynemouth castle
haha. u see the mic? its round. just like the old 60s times. and the singing is so 60s too. damn classy man.
Its very very crowded in the castle grounds. tons of people everywhere.lotsa side shows everywhere. what a nice atmosphere it was.
taken from one of the angles of tynemouth castle. this is justa small part of the castle grounds.
Guantanamera. Guantanamera. haha a live band playing some latin music.
hehe. we got away from the crowd and fun for a while to take pictures of the tynemouth castle.its remains.
does this picture remind u of a familiar movie scene?
or this?

My short holiday in newcastle is wonderful. Going to the beach. The Alnwick Gardens. and most of all. The friends! its the friends. the people i meet in newcastle that matters most. i wish i get to spend more time with everyone of them. but time is limited. and i have to say lo, God divided the time evenly for everyone lo. Was great talkin to Mark in the bus about his england life. Was awesome to share faith with fangkee n the opportunity to pray.Spending one last england time with sharon. seeing her collection postcards. I really enjoyed this trip to newcastle. Thank God that manager sophie gave me three days leave in a row.
Btw, my newcastle holiday entry took me three days to complete. i keep on posting pictures. typing half way then have to leave. so yea.if u notice of any gaps in the entry. so sorry. its been a very busy week for me. God Bless!~
