Dunston Staiths...

...for a wee blipmeet with DollyDoug...
I've wanted to visit for ages, and today was the day :)

Dolly took us to Pedalling Squares - a quirky cyclist-themed cafe - first, for a great coffee. Then we parked at the Staiths and walked along the river towards The Baltic - bridge pics in extras.

We had a spot of lunch in the Staiths cafe on the return trip - a great catch up, a 7k river walk thrown in for good measure, and the weather was kind :)
