Portsmouth England

We love Portsmouth. there are heaps of things to see and we are having a great time.

On our first morning here we went for a walk around the old port and stopped for fish (cod) and chips at a pub with a big glass of lemonade.

After we were full we went to visit the dock area with all the boats and museums.

The first boat was the Victory which was a famous boat in the battle of Trafalgar, and the Admiral on this boat was Admiral Nelson, who died in this battle.

We got to see how the Admiral, captain and the officers lived and also got to see how the normal people lived as well, which was very different.

We went to some museums and we got to see how some people would have dressed. We think the clothes looked very beautiful. But we wouldn't want to be a King or Queen as they don't look very comfortable.

There was also a museum called action stations where we got to do lots of things from making out we were flying in a helicopter to firing a gun and rock climbing.

The rock climbing was our favourite thing to do. We want to go back and do it again.

Our next place we go to is Weymouth where we will be seeing some people from Australia that we met in Collioure in the south of France. We can't wait to see the kids again. We had great fun with them last time.

Love from

Neisha, Jessica and Jackson
