Tuesday was spent in Portsmouth and the evening on Hayling Island. Toiured both the Warrior and Victory and a boat trip round the Harbour. The Mary Rose Nuseum will not be open now until early 2013.
Margaret and Paul had never visited Portsmouth so was an exciting day for them. In the evening drove round Hayling showing M & P our old haunts, brought back many memories. Finished the evening with a meal at the Langstone where we have stayed on many occasions.
Wednesday we spent the day at the Arundel Wetland Centre. How can we complain, but it was rather hot for walking!
Walked the complete Wetland to include a 30 minute ride through the Reed Beds on an electric boat. Good time of year to visit as so many Ducks, Gulls etc are nesting or have had their young. Even at our age it is always good to see!
The most amazing happening for me was the Mole running along the path like a giant Caterpillar. After finding a patch of grass it then proceded to dig making the customory Mole Hill. What on earth was it doing above ground, never normally seen above ground.
Finished the day with a good meal at the New Inn.
