Ben and Hannas Trip 2007

Plymouth!

We were very excited to have the day off today. It was a really nice warm day (not warm enough for a swim although some of the crazy Brits thought it was).
We drove to Plymouth which is about 45 miles away. We were told by a mixture of people that it was no good then others saying it was really nice. Ben and i thought we would go and make our own decision... We thought it was really good. It was more what we thought sea front places would look like.

Just as we got to the sea front this Navy Ship was being guided in. Cool Huh!!! If you look closely you can see some crazy Brit swimming!!! Keep in mind the water is about 12 degrees.
Another superimposed image!!!
This is what we saw as we were driving into the city centre. Its a church that has no roof. It was basically the shell of the church. I thought the orangie brown walls behind it were part of it but no... For Sarah & Simone it was a masive Primark!!!!

We had lunch at a little cafe overlooking the bay and had a wonder around the city in the afternoon. Was a good day overall. We feel as though we got a bit of sun which is good considering we are in a dark pub all day every day!

Not too much to report on but we have a new couple starting with us later this week and hopefully our travel agent will get back to us later this week so we can organise some other exciting trips!!!

Love you all and miss you heaps.

    Recieved a paragraph from a magazine the other day (from my nan) and thought I'd better warn you guys ;)
    "You might like to know about the following laws still in existence in various areas of England...*Anyone breaking an egg at the sharp end could be sentenced to 24 hours in the stocks. *It is illegal for a woman to be topless in public, except as a cleark in a tropical fish store. *It is illegal to be drunk on licensed premises. *Excluding Sundays, it is legal to shoot a Scotsman with a bow and arrow. *No one is allowed to die in Parliament - except the monarch. *On Christmas day it is illegal to eat mince pies. !!!!
    Be careful guys! Love Heather :)
