Northumberland beach riding; 4/8...

The rain and clouds had long since passed as we slowly winched up the long beach at Ross Back Sands,   It was tough but steady into the constant wind and the wet sand was firm below the high tide line of the retreating tide...

We eventually neared the point and looking back we had come a long way when comparing it to the OS map...

Across the narrow channel was Lindesfarne, being the start of the English Bank Holiday weekend it would be absolutely packed with folk as the steady convoy of vehicles crossed the now open tidal causeway  in the distance, 

Nearer to us moving was a huge group of seals, we slowed down and approached even slower than we were doing to not spook them too much and they slowly started to move off into the water where as seals always do they bobbed about watching us pass by...

And finally we were here at the twin towers, as I have always referred totem when looking across to here from Lindesfarne....
