We were expecting wind gusts, but on the morning we left, they were higher than previously predicted. As we felt the wind would not by itself pose a safety hazard, as we weren't traversing exposed ridges, we felt it would be more a nuisance than anything. We were correct, a nuisance, and a cold one at that. It doesn't show on the stills, but the videos show that ice crystals were being driven by the wind blasts.
Join us as we spend the weekend onboard a DFDS Ferry from Newcastle to Amsterdam on an Amsterdam Mini Cruise.

We spend three days on a return trip from Newcastle to Amsterdam and in this video we do a full tour of the ship so you know what to expect if you plan on taking this trip in the future.
We set sail on DFDS's Kings Seaways from North Shields (near Newcastle). After checking into our room we then went to the top deck to view our departure.
We then go for a full tour of the ship and visit the bars, shops, arcade, night club, wildlife observation centre, cafe, etc.
We spend all evening looking around and then have a picnic in our room instead of going to the buffet restaurant.
We have an inside room with 4 beds (2 bunk beds).
The next morning the sea is rough and we feel a bit sick but still go for breakfast which was included in our package.
We then arrive at Amsterdam (IJmuiden Ferry Terminal) we get a transfer into the city where we spend the next few hours.
We are dropped off near Amsterdam Central Station and walk into the centre of the city. First we get some Frites (fries) to eat followed by some ice cream.
Our first attraction is the RijksMuseum. The Rijksmuseum is the national museum of the Netherlands and is dedicated to Dutch arts and history. We got to see some paintings by Dutch Masters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer and Van Gogh.
Next we went to the Royal Palace of Amsterdam, we only toured here for a short time as we were on a strict time schedule.
We got a late lunch at an Italian restaurant before heading back to the ship on the bus transfer provided.
After we got back on board we waited on the top deck to see us depart and then we spent the evening touring around the ship again and spending time in the Columbus Bar night club.
The next morning the weather was a lot better and the sun was out as we cruised up the British coast.
We arrived back into North Shields on time and departed the boat which took almost an hour to go through security.

I had expected to see more Mordellidae in Ecuador but this one is my first, found sitting on top of a fence post. Cosanga, Napo, Ecuador, ~2125 meters elevation.
When you are expecting a baby, there is a lot of stuff that you want to get, and you need to make sure everything is present. These clothes are very beautiful on your baby and it makes him so beautiful. It is also so comfortable for your baby.
Okay, I like these a lot more than I first expected. They are clean, contrasty, and sharp. Sure, there's a bit of visible grain, but overall, it adds to the sharpness. The contrast is deep and rich, exactly what I expect from a cinefilm! I think the bit of overexposure and slight pull in development work perfectly, although I could have developed them at the listed nine minutes.

Not sure what to expected from the bulls in Round 1… PBR livestock director Cody Lambert described the bulls as “smooth spinners and a good overall pen for the riders to get their feet wet.”
With first round excitement in the air, fans awaited the first crack of the gate. Flint kept everyone entertained, and he is an in-house favorite. The bulls and the bull riders put on a great performance… a few boos were heard, and there were a few close calls between the human athletes and the animal athletes. But, the bull fighters were there to protect the fallen, and there were no serious injuries.
J.B. Mauney from Mooresville, NC rode Chester for 89.75 points, and won the round. An interesting fact is that in 2008 at the World Finals J.B. also won round 1…
Join me as I bring you the thrills and spills of the opening night at the PBR World Finals in Las Vegas.

Located within the Preston Market Hall, expect a vibrant and bustling atmosphere.
The stall itself is likely a permanent fixture, possibly made of wood with clear signage bearing the name "Redman's" in a classic font.
Shiny chrome display cases filled with an array of savoury and sweet treats would be a focal point.
Hot Food: The star of the show seems to be their Full English breakfast, possibly displayed on heated trays with sausages, bacon, eggs, baked beans, tomatoes, and mushrooms. Other hot options might include sausage rolls, pastries, or scotch eggs.
Sandwiches: A deli counter with fresh bread and a variety of fillings like roast beef, ham and cheese, or perhaps a selection of vegetarian options with chutney or hummus.
Cold Meats and Cheeses: There might be a section with sliced meats and cheeses, perfect for creating a custom charcuterie board at home.
Cakes and Pastries: A tempting display of sweet treats could include classics like Victoria sponge cake, cupcakes, or regional favourites like Eccles cakes or Lancashire oatcakes.
Redman's being a family business, expect friendly and helpful staff. They might be happy to answer questions about their offerings and recommend something based on your preferences.
You'll likely see them taking orders, assembling sandwiches, and packaging up purchases.
While Redman's is primarily a takeaway stall, there might be a small seating area nearby within the market hall where you can enjoy your purchase.
Overall Impression:
Redman's stall is likely a delightful spot to grab a satisfying and affordable breakfast, lunch, or afternoon snack. The aroma of freshly baked goods and savoury treats would be enticing, and the friendly service would add to the positive experience.
