Default A trip to the coast (pictures)

As you guys know I spend a lot of time travelling, this weekend my friend and I decided to take a trip to Portsmouth and Gosport museums.

The highlight of the trip was HMS Alliance of course she is worth a visit and is located in Gosport, of course so close to Portsmouth (literally a stone throw) we did view HMS Victory (the oldest commissioned warship in the world) and HMS warrior.

There are too many pictures taken so chose a few to show you some of the views,

Here is some shots taken both yesterday and today from these museums on the south coast of England, but I also have a question:


Here is my friend Jo he is 5ft 9in weighs 116kg (18 1/2 stone) who thinks we had to call the fire service to get him out of that bell? (that hatch is just 12inch in diameter !)
