I'm now in Tynemouth, England, just outside of Newcastle, on the coast of the North Sea. I'm staying with my friend Alan from college, who is currently pursuing a PhD at Newcastle University.
I once mentioned that the town where I live is charming, but frankly, Tynemouth makes it look like a war zone inside a third world country inside Snookie's bedroom. Tynemouth is a small village with a main street running perperndicular to the sea. There are cliffs, and bays, and beaches, and quiet English pubs, and noisy English pubs, the ruins of a castle and church, and a lighthouse.
Today I ran out to that lighthouse and up and down the coast which was one of the greatest runs I've had in a long time. Nice scenery makes all the difference.
