Aurora, Northumbria-style
A recent 2 week trip to Northumberland resulted in some memorable conditions including a small matter of the aurora! Having never seen the Lights anywhere before to say this was a treat is an understatement, particularly in my favourite part of the world. A red alert pinged at a very respectable early evening hour and staying within a 5 minute drive of the beach saw us there almost before anyone else. Little did we know the treat would be repeated later in the week with a much stronger display but this view remains my favourite as it was one of the first and most exciting!!
