August 19 Southampton, Hampshire

Our last day in England.  Tomorrow we board the Queen Mary 2 for the voyage to New York.

We did some walking around the downtown and at the waterfront.
 God's House Tower

 City walls

 Words of Alfred Lord Tennyson in front of Holyrood Church

 Holyrood Church which was heavily damaged during the war in 1940

 Got a kick out of this pub!

 Titanic Engineers Memorial

Southampton also has a large indoor shopping mall very close to the harbor.  In both this shopping center and in the one in Portsmouth they have what they call Shopmobility.  This is a free service for a wheelchair or motorized scooter while you are shopping at the mall.  I think it’s wonderful but really glad I no longer need that kind of service!






Sending love R/P
