A one night, two-days trip, which was fairly relaxed since by then we knew the most difficult was done: we were technically in British soil already, at least with a British timezone.
A highlight was sailing past the Isle of Wight and toying with all our memories there, when it was our neighbor, for several years, to which we paid only a couple of visits. It was very familiar nevertheless and a cherished acquaintance.
The Isle of Wight in sight: now in the arms of UK.
Ryde seafront.
And soon enough, Portsmouth in sight.
This was Luz's first visit to an aquarium.
We told her this one looked like mémé.
A roman vessel. The maker's stamp 'P. CIPI POLIBI' refers to Publius Cipius Polybius, a famous maker of trullei' near Pompeii at the end of 1st century AD.
While the Magna Carta remains of limited access, similar documents, like this 1461 Charter from Edward IV can be contemplated at will.
Hob-Nob, the companion to a medieval giant puppet [in red, behind], the only one to survive in the country (the Salisbury Giant). This would have been a major attraction back in the 15th century.
Part of the temporal exhibition: photos from neolithic monuments from above. Here, Stonehenge.
Warminster is an old market town. We visited it since it was so close to our previous settlement, in fact almost toying with the idea of a nightly visit from the park, which would have been enough as it takes more time to park than to run through its main (market) street.
