The first one is from my wonderful eldest grandson Aidan, Age 11. He lives in Scotland and went on a trip with the school to Dundee to have a tour of the RSS Discovery . He said he thought of me when he went on the boat! ♥
RSS Discovery
RRS Discovery was the last traditional wooden three-masted ship to be built in Britain. Designed for Antarctic research, she was launched as a Royal Research Ship (RRS) in 1901. Her first mission was the British National Antarctic Expedition, carrying Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton on their first, successful journey to the Antarctic, known as the Discovery Expedition. She is now the centrepiece of visitor attraction in her home, Dundee
Next I can thank my lovely friend Diane and Nigel who went to stay at this fabulous lookingChateau for a few days. Looks a great place to take a break ♥I am sure you had a wonderful time. Thank you for sharing and thinking of me. Avanton is a commune in the Vienne department in the Poitou-Charentes region in western France.
