As suggested yesterday, most of my
time is now being taken up sussing out the next trip and/or thinking out
a 'new direction'. Thus far the options for travel have been whittled
down to 3, but in any of these events the direction will be 'WEST'!
Already the Field Guides to Northern South America, West Indies and
Where to Watch Birds in South America have been employed, with the
latter causing a great deal of excitement. So, the plan for today's post
was to delve into the archive once again but, coincidentally, I
received an e-mail from my friend
ROBERT WHITE
(Son of Secret) challenge
(Son of Secret) challenge
giving
me a written and photographic account of his first 3 weeks at Bristol
University. He had said in leaving that the intent would be to discover
the city between bouts of lectures, tutorials etc, but didn't imagine he
would have got round to doing so much in such a short space of time.
The images that follow are just some of those sent along with the
narrative which is also his, for which I thank Bert and look forward to
seeing you soon - CHEERS!
There's so much to see and do here! I think you'd love it - especially the history behind everything! 
For
example, The Matthew, is a replica of the ship sailed by John Cabot in
1497 in the discovery of America, making him, and not therefore,
Columbus the original discoverer of America.

rear elevations plus
The Orangery and includes
its own Folly.
