Good old England (brother`s visit)

My brother and his girlfriend decided to pay me a visit- right after I returned from the Netherlands. You`re welcome to take a look at our adventures! And, of coures, welcome to England!!

Angel of the North- one of the biggest attractions around Newcastle

Bamburgh castle in fog


This beach with fine golden sand and coarse grass reminded me on Jurmala (Latvian coast).

Edinburgh

Amazing fields of raps!




The famous Hadrian`s wall that was built almost 2000 years ago by the orders of Roman emperor and stretches about 85 miles from coast to coast!




Remains of a Roman fort

Kielder lake is the largest man-made lake in England.




High altitude and miles of heather fields!


The silence here is unimaginable.



Sooooooooo cute!!!




I and my brother remembered our childhood. Especially one time when we climbed a tree and he climbed it better and higher- just to experience a nice fall through the branches to the very ground!
