On my trip home the other week I also got to go to Portsdown hill. From here there’s an amazing view all over Portsmouth, the Spinnaker tower is easily visible and I’ve always loved this view – even as a child.
This time I took a few snaps..
They’re not great – but they’re ok.
What a view!

It’s beautiful…..this is probably my favorite thing you do on your blog. I just like seeing where your feet have been seeing as I’ll never get there. It’s as if we’re right there with you. It’s always interesting to see where you’ve been š

Awww… Thanks for that Lennon. That’s the kind of thing I want to achieve and I appreciate how you see that.
But if you ever made it here I would have to give you the tour! š

Nice! You got a great day for it, & it’s nice to see Portsmouth from a new angle. Some Beasties paid it a visit a couple of years ago, here’s the link if you want to check it out! https://crawcraftsbeasties.com/2015/06/26/paddy-and-plunkett-head-to-portsmouth/

I have been to Portsmouth in 2011. I am pleased to see it in sunlight… lol! It was pouring all day back then!

Ha! Yes that can happen all too often. It’s an interesting city where new and old mix and it’s changed so much in my lifetime. The spinnaker tower is the biggest change.

If I remember right, there is a Mexican restaurant at the Spinnaker Tower. And a shoe store. I had to get a new pair of shoes for my youngest one because they were filled with water until we arrived there… lol

Oh there’s lot of stuff there. I think the Mexican is round the corner from a Chinese we used to go to with my Mum.

That could be. I just know the Mexican because after deciding for minutes in the pooring rain the kids finally agreed that we would go there for lunch… lol!
