It’s time for lunch and Castro Street is so close! What choice could we make but to walk a mile and choose from a wonderful selection of restaurants? We chose the Irish pub and opted for the outdoor seating. From there we could see and hear some of the coverage of the World Cup quarter finals as we enjoyed traditional Irish pub food and drink and enjoyed most gorgeous weather. We also managed to justify the indulgence a bit with the fact that we logged at least two miles on the round trip.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
