Round the Island trip 2010

by ColinR » 26 Nov 2014, 09:49

A bunch of us grabbed the best weather for many a year and did a cruise in company around the Isle of Wight.

My bunch of pictures follow. We really couldn't have chosen a better day.

This year's repeat was not so benign but was "interesting" to say the lease. Roll on next year. Anyone up for it again?

Don't know what you mean. Did anyone get any pics of that awful cloud bank rolling towards us on the way home? :roll:

Not to mention our re-enactment of a landing craft on Ryde Sands :lol: :lol:
