We toured Victory. This was the flagship of Admiral Nelson in the naval battle of Trafalgar. I have a great amount of interest in the wooden ship cannon battle, naval centuries, so the Portsmouth naval museums were a big highlight of this holiday.

We drove by Buckingham Palace on the day that Kate and Williams baby George was born. Crowds were gathering along with lots of press.

We went to Cadbury chocolate factory. It was actually pretty horrible. Their factory machines weren’t making any chocolates. The only interesting thing to me, were these Cocoa beans.
This is Port Solent’s marina. We had dinner there, near- or part of- Portsmouth.
