Mom's Visit #2

The first weekend Mom was here, we took a quick trip down to Newcastle to see my cousin Julie and her husband Andreas. I had stayed with them for Thanksgiving but it was the first time Mom was able to see their new place in England! On Sunday we took a trip to Alnwick Castle (which had an amazing falconry presentation), the seat of the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland. It was a really awesome castle although we were mildly disappointed because the website promoted it as a Harry Potter castle but it turns out only a small scene from the first book was filmed there.
