Today's travel was a little longer than normal. We left the hotel in Brighton at 8:00.
Our first stop was STONEHENGE - very impressive.
Our next stop was Salisbury Cathedral. Yes, another cathedral and with some important history. One of Seven ORIGINAL copies of the Magna Charter is on display here. Again - impressive - something that we have all heard about in history, and how it changed England and hence the rest of the world.
We stopped at a small village named Widecombe in the Moore - in the general vicinity of Dartmore. You know, The Hounds of Basterville?
Our final stop was the port city of Plymouth. We saw the 'Mayflower Steps' - the loading location for the ship Mayflower. Also in the park near the bay is the Smeaton Lighthouse - may have some family significance.
