Ha! Ha! We had a lazy start to the day. When we finally got up we went to Tesco for breakfast and when we had finished that Granny and Grandpa met us but I felt like calling Grandpa "Poppy" just for the fun of it! They had travelled all the way to Newcastle and we had only finished breakfast! They then had some breakfast too.We the all went for a walk at Whitley Bay but it was very, very, very windy. Then we had dinner in a restaurant and I had roast chicken. 
After dinner Mummy and Daddy, me and Lottie and Granny and Poppy went for a walk in Newcastle. Daddy says this photo above is our magazine pose as no-one is looking the same way. I like Newcastle as there are lots of bridges and one of them had trains going over it and another had buses.
After an easy day on Thursday, Mummy, Daddy and me and Lottie wasted no time hitting the beach (after Daddy and me had been to the shop as is our holiday routine!). The sun was shinning and the day was lovely. I sneaked a peek at the lifeboat on route the the beach and then began a busy morning playing in the sand, building castle and playing in the sea. It was great. We had a picnic lunch and then Lottie and me had a sleep, and I think that Mummy and Daddy took it in turns to have a little nap too. After more playing on the beach we went back to Noah's Ark. Daddy and me went to get dinner and we had lovely Indian food - I liked the luari chicken better than the chicken korma and I ate lots as I was starving!
After dinner we went for a last walk around Seahouses and especially around the harbour. I showed Lottie the boats and then I showed Daddy the lighthouse that you can see from the end of the harbour. When I got there I felt like I needed to poo so sat on the floor to concentrate and push a bit. Daddy didn't want to give me a shoulder ride after that - I don't know why. In case you are interested, I didn't actually poo!
Thursday was our 'rest day' as our holiday had been really busy relaxing and the weather on Thursday was not the bestest - a little overcast and a lot windy. Mummy and Daddy and Lottie and me did a little shopping, Daddy got his haircut as he thought it was too long(!?!), and I had a little sleep and a little play with my toys in Noah's Ark Cottage. Late in the afternoon we went and had a play on the beach and Daddy and me had a splash in the sea, but as it was windy I needed my woolly jumper and tracky bottoms on when I came out - it wasn't a day for being damp in the open!
Me and Mummy and Daddy and Lottie went on the boat in the picture above. It was a very lovely boat and it had a lot of people on it and a dog that looked like Granny and Grandpa's Poppy. The boat went very fast and took us on a trip to the Farne Islands which I could see from Seahouses as they had some lighthouses on them. It was very exciting being on the boat and there was lots and lots to see, like other boats, and I liked the waves splashing at the front best.
The boat took us to an island that is the home to some seals. Seals are different from the sea lions that I saw at the safari park. The seals just sat on rocks and looked at me - one even waved - but sea lions at the safari park jumped into the water, blew bubbles carried a ball on their nose and jumped out of the water to hit a ball high in the air. The boat then went to another island where there was lots and lots of birds. There were some funny looking birds called puffins that looked like little penguins with funny beaks. I liked them too.
Tuesday on my holiday was supposed to be a cloudy day, but it turned out to be baking! Mummy and Daddy thought it was to be cloudy so planned that we would go for a ride on a little steam train - I was so excited - I love choo-choo's! We arrived at a little station and Daddy got us little tickets and we waited on the little platform for the little train to come. It whistled 'peep-peep' before I saw it. The train journey was great and went through some lovely countryside before arriving at a little place which had a castle, a pub and a tea-room shop. We went to the tea-room shop and I had a ice lollipop and Mummy and Daddy had a big pot of tea and some big cake, Lottie just had her usual milk and we all sat outside as the weather was lovely.
At the tea-room shop there were some cheeky birdies that flew right up onto the table to help themselves to cake crumbs from Mummy and Daddy's plate. I told them that they were bad, bad, bad, but they took no notice.In the evening, after a big tea of sausages and Yorkshire pudding, Mummy and Daddy and me and Lottie went for a walk along the beach. I had a paddle in the sea as I had my sandals on and it was great fun splashing Daddy and Mummy.
I'm just back from being away on my holidays and I had a lovely time. It all started on a Sunday, after Daddy had been to work, Mummy and Daddy and me and Lottie packed up the car for our journey. It was quite a long journey, but not as long as to Granny and Grandpa's and I stayed awake all the time. I went to the seaside to a place called Seahouses and Daddy had planned that we would stay in a cottage called Noah's Ark! How good is that - a cottage with my name!
Once we had unpacked in the Noah's Ark, Mummy and Daddy and Lottie and me went for an explore. The seaside was right at the end of our street and there was a harbour which is where little boats spend the night. I liked seeing the boats and I saw some of them spout water out of the back which I thought was them doing a pee-pee. The weather was lovely warm.
I was so excited when I got up this morning and went into Mummy's room because Daddy was there! He was off work yesterday and I didn't think he would be off work again today so it was a surprise to see him. Yesterday was a nice day, we had a coffee with my hero Paul (have you checked out the Paul Clement Trio yet?), but mostly we did bits and bobs that needed doing. Today was a better day as today was officially a Play Day! Daddy decided that because it was sunny we would go and play at the seaside, so we packed up the car and went to the beach. When we got there we had a little walk along the beach and then Daddy and I went for a paddle in the sea. I thought the sea would be a little chilly but it wasn't as cold as my paddling pool - in fact it was warm!
After our paddle we had chippies and a burger for lunch and sat on some grass to eat it like having a picnic (Lottie didn't have chippies and burger, she just had mulk). Then I got changed into my proper swimming suit and we hit the beach again. I chased Daddy in the sea but it's hard to run in water. I also practised my swimming a little. Then Mummy and me made some sand castles with my bucket and spade. We made lots and lots of them. I like building them, but I have found a good way to flatten them too - I sit on them and squash them! I had a lovely day at the seaside and I hope the weather is nice so that we can go again!
