Isle of Wight

Tuesday - Isle of Wight
Me, Lisa and Joe headed over to the Isle of Wight today to visit Peter, Julia, Lily and Iris. Karen is away with her mum walking the North Dorset Coast Path. Lisa and Joe very happy to be on the ferry leaving Portsmouth... Lisa checking out a very impressive Swedish tall ship...
We went to Tiffins in Cowes for some lunch. Lily, Lisa and Iris getting stuck into their sarnies...
Wednesday - Isle of Wight Steam Railway.

We went for a look at the IOW Steam Railway. Peter and Julia in Third Class...
The trains are haunted by horrible ghosts...
Joe taking the trains very seriously...
There was a falconery display at the Haven Street Station. Here are the girls with an 11 week old Barn Owl...
Joe was very impressed with the climbing frame in the playground. "Can we take it home dad?"
Another train ride to Wotton Halt. Joe, Iris, Lily and Lisa...
Back at Peter and Julia's house. The kids chillin in the lounge...
Thursday - Amazon World
Today we went to see all the animals at Amazon World. Here are some of the more wild ones - Lesser Spotted Iris, Lilygator, Joemadilo and Lisamingo...
The girls got to go into the cage with the Limas and feed them...
There was a great playground outside Amazon World. Joe very hapy in his castle...
We had a great time. Thanks P,J,L & I.
