IoW day8: Freshwater & Sea Creatures


What’s quite unusual is the way the weather changes so much here on the island – rain, windy and now bright sunshine. The Easter weekend truly started for the island, it had been very quiet over the past week but today the bay was very busy in comparison.

The Freshwater lifeboat was out for a practice as well today; first time I’d seen it this year.

… the pictures of the bay today are amazing; what a great day and it had only just started.

From Freshwater, I travelled north to Fort Victoria, a collection of attractions including a planetarium, model railway and the aquarium. I took some pictures of the creatures from the not-so-deep…

… after a late lunch at the fort, I made my way back just stopping off at Colwell Bay…
