Newcastle

Monday we arrived in Newcastle to a fairly nice afternoon. The girls had a quick bite to eat then we did a tour on the hop on hop off bus which was a great way to see the city.
We met our hosts at the Royal Grammar School and the girls soon headed off with their families for the night.
Tuesday morning Chelsea did a small swim with the Royal Grammar School team then we all headed off to the beach before a lunchtime shop. In the afternoon we played two netball games and Chelsea and Jason headed off to visit one of the local swimming clubs.
Fish and chips night.

Always a photo opportunity.




On the millennium Bridge, the glare seems to have gotten to the girls!

Due to the wet weather we had to move the netball games to the university indoor courts which were an excellent facility to play in.
The first game was played in 3 x 10min thirds. Our "B" team played their game of the tour so far to come away with a convincing win.

Following on from the B teams lead our A team put in a strong game to also come out winners. This has our A team undefeated so far on tour.

The pool was old but nice. 25 yards was a new experience.
