Last day of coast to coast

Last day! From Corbridge to Newcastle to South shields and back to Newcastle. (We would've had another day to do but we but did the last day as well t




oday)
So today we had a non-stop wet day I was misreble for the first 25 miles to Newcastle that was all we were meant to do for the day then tommorow we were meant to do 20miles. By this point we were covered by mud! The parents persuaded us to do a ten and then said we could take the train back. We took a ferry across the river Tyne and then had lunch  which was very nice but it turned out we couldn't take the train back. Instead we did cycle the other 10 miles back to Newcastle but it wasn't so bad as the wind was behind us and the rain had died down for a while. When we got to our hotel it turned out that they didn't have a proper place for parking bikes even though dad had phone to ask before he booked. In the end as we had already finished and were( and still are)  ahead of schedule me and dad decided to head off to Grantham to see my grandma (dad's mum) which we were supposed to do tommorow.Which means we left Oliver and Mike at the hotel who didn't mind their bikes there. Dad and I said bye (only to Mike as Oliver was having a shower) and went. We took a train to Grantham and are staying at a hotel, tommorow we'll cycle about ten miles to Bottesford to my grandma's and will be done then. This should be my last blog until the summer or something so bye for now.
