Here we are on the Balmoral taking a trip around the Severn estuary...from Penartth to Clevedon, on to Bristol and then up and under the two Severn crossings and back to Penarth. Wonderful day out on a fascinating ship.            

Bit tricky getting the whole of this into shot! If you like your bridges, the Transporter in Newport is well worth a visit. One of only two in the UK, the other is in Middlesbrough, it was restored to full working order back in the 90's and is a pretty impressive way of getting across what has to be said is a very murky river!
