After a surprisingly peaceful night, we have a leisurely breakfast in the morning. Again, we are greeted with a really good breakfast buffet and we already feel like we're on vacation. The weather is still glorious. As we arrive in Newcastle, the sun is shining.
We disembark from the ferry and soon find ourselves on our way to Alnwick Castle, our first destination for today. It is the seat of the Duke of Northumberland and has served as a filming location for Harry Potter and Downton Abbey, among others.
The weather is beautiful when we arrive there and the castle is truly worth seeing. From the outside, it looks like a medieval castle and from the inside, it is an Italian grand palace! Many famous Harry Potter scenes were filmed here, including the scene where Harry's class learns to ride on a broomstick. Unfortunately, photography is not allowed inside the castle, but I managed to take a few pictures from the outside.
