Isle of Wight part 1

For half term we had a trip to the Isle of Wight. My parents came too so there wasn't enough room in the car for everyone, plus all the luggage so I decided to travel by train. I think this was probably a bit selfish of me in some ways as I got to travel in peace and quiet whilst reading Patricia Cornwell... blissWe did all meet up in Portsmouth for the Wightlink Ferrythen in 2 car journeys we travelled to Cowes and our lovely National Trust cottage (East Rosetta if you want to see it on their website) right next to the water (well there was a small road in between!)Photograph 44/365 The cottage is Victorian and is where Winston Churchill's parents met. It still has many of the original features including fireplaces and a huge range.
