So recently the Clipper Round the World Race was in town and we are big fans of all round the world ships and shipping. We can’t help ourselves. If you can plot it on a map… well we would rather be on it!!! On museum night, our first stop was a visit to the Clipper Ships and I realised immediately…

Because the Clippers ships are so magnificent…

It would just not enough to just look at them before the sun went down…

I knew my gang would have to go down again…

Walk around the quay and pick up the vibe…

Chat to the crew…

And step on board…

Take a look around…

Get inspired…

So much to learn…

And gear to check out…

And dreams to dream…

This race is huge…

And my gang are watching them every step of the way…

Follow them… plot their journey and read their stories… it really is an adventure to embrace…

Imagine our surprise when we went for a morning walk and spotted the wreck…

A Clipper ship gone down… a tragedy.

Have to say, we prefer our Clipper ships floating on the big blue…
