Highlights from the trip:
one) I'm engaged! I was proposed to outside of a bar in Newcastle at 4 o' clock in the morning by a British guy down on one knee. Of course, I said yes!
two) FLARES! A 70's themed club where everyone and everything is bright and colorful and interesting, yet slightly disturbing. Everywhere you looked there were discoballs and women dressed in one piece, glittery, bell-bottomed body suits. There were women with fake moustaches and men dancing to Dancing Queen like their life depended on it. It was fantastic and definitely something to remember!
three) Wandering around Newcastle looking for Quayside and somewhere to stay was a highlight. Since the trip was spontaneous, we didn't have a hotel booked and we really had no idea where we were going. Luckily the first night we found a hotel room right in the heart of all of the action. The second night we found an obscure bed and breakfast also right in the center of all of the fun.
four) Alnwick Castle! Even though we were completely exhausted from our trip, Chelsea and I decided to take the train to a neighboring city from Newcastle. We visited Alnwick, which is the second largest castle in the UK and where Harry Potter was filmed..aka Hogwarts! It was gorgeous and definitely worth the trip!
