Day spent exploring the Jurassic Coast by Steam Train and Boat.
Boarded the train at a Village called Norden alighting at Swanage, a trip of 35 minutes passing Corfe Castle and Town.
At Swanage we experienced (not expected) the Waverley (only operational steam paddle boat in the world) arrive/depart at Swanage Pier. An absolute beauty. Had the pleasure of a trip on this steamer some years ago from Southampton to Isle of Wight.
After a good meal and pint of Chessil Bitter we boarded a boat which sailed the Jurassic Coast to Poole Harbor. With weather conditions perfect it made the trip all the more enjoyable.
Arrived home late and shattered but boy, did we enjoy the day.
