We went for another sortee into the festival. For some reason the bridge was open today, so obviously people are lighter on Sundays. Fancy that. We popped across and watched various acrobatic groups performing in Millenium Square. One group we'd seen before on Friday night, so their jokes were familiar, but still clever and funny. Lots of inuendo that hopefully went over the heads of the many children in the audience. There were also balancing acts, jugglers, hoola-hoopers, and others, so plenty to keep the crowds happy.
We'd not been on a ferry boat since we got here so today was the day. It was a different view of the harbour as we went down to the locks and back up to the SS Great Britain. There were boats everywhere and it seemed anyone who could charge for a trip was doing so. Add to that rowing races, dog rescues, and people generally messing about in boats and you had a busy harbour.
We strolled back past bands, stalls, ice-cream trucks and all the other things that come with a festival, then I got on with touching up the three days of photos, and writing these blogs while J went for a walk again since the sun was out, but returned with ice-creams.
Tomorrow we're off to London to delve into the IWM archives (no charge there for turning up), and of course Thursday we're off to Italy. Yee ha!
