Foxlease and Isle of Wight!

Long time since I have been able to post any updates! We had no computer access at Isle of Wight, and the computers at Foxlease are very temperamental!

So to bring you up to date....
Charles!
We all fit in the Van!


On Saturday, our driver - Charles - showed up with a 16 passenger van........ it fit 16 passengers, but luggage was a different matter!

Luggage was stacked everywhere!
I decided not to worry and went and hid at Pax Lodge till the van was loaded and all luggage stacked.

Our ride to the ferry at Southampton took 2 hours longer then it should have because the QE II was in port for its first voyage and the Queen was coming in to launch the ship! The traffic was terrible!

Stuck in traffic! We could have been in NY!

We finally got on the ferry and had a wonderful relaxing ride to The Isle of Wight.

Katy with a cream tea! Boy, we needed that!

We arrived at Westhill Hotel, and were greeted with a cream tea! It really was nice. Katy greeted us and was very lovely. We got to pick our rooms and then went for a short ride to explore.

Our new best friend - Charles!

That night we had a wonderful dinner of soup and chicken, and cake.
