Leith - HMS Brittania - 30 July


HMS Brittania is not exactly docked in the prettiest of locations but is worth the visit. It was definately a working ship and reflects that in it's simplicity and compactness. Lots to see and learn. You have to go through an interesting exhibition area telling the history of Britannia and it's crew before reaching the ship itself.
After the tour we met up with Mary and David B. (friends of mine) for lunch. They had recently returned from a trip to the US and Canada.
Then we headed back to my parents and took a much needed rest for the rest of the day. We took the opportunity to write a lot of postcards.
