All too soon it was time for our last breakfast at Stoberry House before departing for our homeward journey. After saying goodbye to our hostess and husband we set off to Bristol to visit SS Great Britain.
It being Easter weekend, there was a bit of queue to purchase tickets. Mr C queued and sent mum and I off to browse around the shop, which was also crowded (especially by the book section). I noticed a colouring book which I couldn’t resist purchasing after we had enjoyed the tour of the ship.
We enjoyed the tour of SS Great Britain, mum kept exclaiming how awful it would have been to travel on that ship, which made me think that in those days it would be an adventure to travel on that ship.
After our tour of the ship we continued on our journey home stopping off at the Michael Wood services for lunch. The lunch options were not great so we opted for a sandwich from Waitrose, which we enjoyed eating in the car before continuing on our journey home.
Speaking of coloring!!!! I’d love to see what you’ve done thus far, Cherry. Please keep showing your finished designs.
I think I have got a couple more that I haven’t shown yet. One of them I need to photograph, I will try and remember over the weekend.
You do visit some interesting places – looks like you had a superb break
It was a good break thank you
the SS Great Britain is a majestic steam ans sail ship with a rough history Cherie… but i love the look of her….peter:)
Yes she was left to rot for quite some time, rescuing her was quite a feat!
Brave girl, Cherie.
Brave?
It sounds like you had a very enjoyable trip with Mr.C and your mom. I think attending the church service was something else. As I mentioned I was in the Cathedral and I was taken by the beauty of it. Have a wonderful weekend.
We did have a good time, thank you
i like the rear end of this ship, CP. another nice post.
There are a few more photos yet to come
