On Tuesday we went to the Botanical gardens and walked through the lovely flowers and trees. We had a nice lunch in the cafe before driving along the gorgeous coast line and of course stopping for an ice cream. After dinner we watched the in-house cabaret and the guest one man band. As usual we all danced the night away!
Wednesday we set off to Osborne House and visited the house and gardens. We had lunch in the cafe and afterwards we went to Godshill to buy some souvenirs and to have our daily ice cream. The evening was spent at the resort. We played bingo and Mag’s actually won £15 for a line!! The show was great with singing and dancing. Again, we stayed up for the disco dancing and left the floor at the end of the night.
The next day we went on a steam railway ride. Graham, John and Carol were all allowed up on the plate of the engine and imagined being train drivers. We then went to the watermill for a spot of lunch and visited the museums and walked in the gardens. We spotted some eels in the river. Mags and Pat reverted to their child-hood days when they came across the swings. Next, we were off to the donkey sanctuary. Souvenirs were bought after we had had a good look around. It was our last night and the entertainment was great as always. Tonight’s guest star was a comedian and singer. We had fun and danced into the wee hours.
It was home time on Friday. We packed our bags and had another large breakfast before setting off to the mainland. Derek drove us through the New Forest again and we had lunch at a lovely pub before heading for home. Time for one more ice cream though!!.........
We all had a great time with much laughter. Thanks to Linda, Carol, John, Graham & Corbett for joining in and making it another success.
