Isle of Wight

A few weeks ago , the husband had to go to The Isle of Wight http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Wight for work, so i went for a day out, it was even worth getting up at 6.30 in the morning. 1 hour along the coast and hop on a ferry from Lymington to Yarmouth




is it Barbados? no it's the sea side at Ryde, beautiful!




Lets walk along the prom, and enjoy the old English seaside


Look at beautiful, buildings, if a little shabby



along to Appley Park, what's that in the distance?



wonderful tower













down the steps and back along the prom. if you look closely you can see the south coast across the sea , it's Portsmouth, so close you can see the spinnaker Tower

back along the park









If you want to find treasure, look up!!
this is the museum of saucy seaside postcards http://www.donaldmcgill.info/






oooh how exciting the hover craft port!!! Southampton and portsmouth are 10mins across the straight. you can see them from the prom.










stroll around Yarnmouth's wonderful back streets
