Today I took the bus* into Newcastle, a seaside town with a beautiful hotel and lots of cafes and shops. They had a parade today; I'm not sure why but it definitely related to flying. I bought 3 little face masks, mainly because of their individual wrapping and colorful packaging, hopefully they will contribute to a glowing complexion as promised. They have stores like our dollar stores called "Around a Pound" I bought some chocolate biscuits and tanning lotion. Tanning lotion on sale for only 1 Pound may not be a good idea, but I'm going to try it anyway, and if my legs start to look like orangey abstract art at least its too cold to wear shorts.
I'm starting to understand cows in a deeper way I think. In particular, some are sort of cute, especially the tan ones and a few of the black and whites. I'm not really interested in the black ones, but I do like black sheep. I watched a pair of committed but not very talented sheep trying to escape their field by scaling the hedge and wanted to take a picture so I could title it "Hedge Hunters" Unfortunately, I missed the shot but I'm pretty sure I have a picture (of a hedge of course) I can call "hedging your bets." (Comments or attempts to stop my overuse of puns will be grudgingly accepted but probably not effective)
Saw lots of dogs in Newcastle but still no basset hounds :/
* The bus and I are still not entirely on friendly terms, but I'm not ready to talk about it.
