Plymouth

Uncle Howard is doing better - Dad was able to speak with him on the phone. Looks like it wasn't a diabetic coma/seizure but something else, perhaps an infection. He's on antibiotics and is recovering.

The B&B we stayed at in Cornwall was a nice place, but not as toddler-friendly as the place in Dorset. Lots of breakable baubles around and worse -- creaky floors. Creaky floors + breakable items + toddler who rises at 6:30am + other guests = bleary parental walks outside at ungodly hours.

Anyhow, the day before we left, we caught the ferry from Cawsand over to Plymouth. In contrast to the very sunny and hot day preceding this one, it was gray, cooler, overcast, windy, which made for a choppy ride.

E waiting for the ferry.


Here's the ferry coming in. We boarded from a gangplank lowered directly onto the sand.


E was a bit fragile due to sleep issues. Hanging over the end of the boat cheered him up, however.


Mayflower Memorial in Plymouth, and E's shoes.


Will post pics of the aquarium on the next update.
