John and Andrea Udberg

The last set of pictures from Mike and Gail’s visit start here with our foggy visit to the Priory, then go on to show the BBQ at Dave and Mary’s, finishing off with Alnwick gardens on Sunday.

The BBQ was great, everyone seemed to have a good time.  Dave put on an excellent spread and the lions head was as popular as ever.

Tuesday morning we drove to the airport and saw them off.  It has been great to show Mike and Gail around the region and Edinburgh.

Andrea is now in serious holiday mode and is thinking deeply about training for the Great North Run.

Photographs from our trip North start here.

They document our travels from Holy Island, camp in Embleton, a trip out around the Farne Islands, Edinburgh and the Falkirk Wheel!

The website move is now complete, you should hopefuly find the site alot faster!  If you come accross any problems or broken pictures in the gallery please let me know!

We are back from our trip North, we’ve had a great time!  More on that when we have sorted through out 800 odd photo’s…

These pictures are from Monday, Andrea was in school in the morning and I took Mike and Gail to the ‘historic abbey town’ of Hexham then some of Hadrian’s Wall at Housesteads.

I am also busy uploading the website to a new host which should make the site alot faster… that should be done in a few days

After Andrea had taken Mike and Gail to her church this morning, we headed off to Durham.

Pictures start here of us exploring the Angel of the North, Durham town and the Cathedral.

We are going to Mary and Daves for dinner tonight.

Mike and Gail arrived here yesterday.

Andrea has come down with her traditional end of term illness early this time around but is slowly recovering after two days of rest.

We were at Mary and Daves tonight for tea with Lynne and Grandma making guest appearances.  Pudding was good.

We have lots of places and things to show the whanau over the next 11 days…

Update: Photographs from Saturdays trip to Newcastle start here.
