Flying High

Joe wasn't sure about this one so sat the first ride out but once he decided he was brave enough to give it a go he didn't get want to get off.

We'd picked up Ruby's pal and headed off on the train to town. There was nearly a mutiny when the train broke down for a while but in the end it managed to limp into Waverley. The first ride on this thing for four kids cost more than the return journey on the train - how does that work? Mind you, the ride didn't break down so maybe the money goes on maintenance.

Then it was off to the ferris wheel, the ice maze, the zorbing and the bungee jumping.

A quick decompression session in the City Art Gallery cafe and then back on the train.

I am now off to the Tyneside Tavern to recover.
