Holiday - Day 6: Monks and Mouths...

Finally the storms died down enough for us to dare to take the causeway across to the Holy Island. We waited all week, through floods and gale force winds but we Yorkshire folk are nothing if not patient.


It is a beautiful island housing it's own castle and priory.


You have to love the monks...


Due to the tide times we had a limited window to wander around but we were able to see what we had gone to see.


Once our window for escape started to close we headed to the main land and up across the border into Scotland. In Eyemouth we saw a Seal, Rohan finally got to put paw to sand and we felt some of that good weather that we had hoped for.

But some how going to a different country for the day seemed like cheating! :) xx
