The Solent Dolphin Boat Trip
Today was the perfect day to head off from Canford Chase to Hythe Marina for our scenic trip on board the Solent Dolphin boat.
This much-anticipated outing was especially exciting for Carol Brown, who loved boating in her younger days.
After a safety briefing and a backstory of the Alison Macgregor, we set sail on a beautifully warm afternoon. Everyone was chatting together and admiring the stunning views of Southampton, including St Mary’s Stadium, which started as a church football team.
The journey continued with sightings of lovely and expensive boats and yachts around the area. Residents marvelled at the sleek designs, wondering which one would be their favourite to buy. Adding to the spectacle was the sight of a magnificent cruise liner ready to set sail, its sheer size leaving us all in awe.
The pleasant weather, with clear blue skies and a gentle breeze, was the perfect backdrop for our outing. During our trip, the group enjoyed a delightful picnic with freshly brewed teas and coffees, followed by a selection of biscuits.
Altogether, the trip was one of joy and relaxation, creating memories we can all cherish for a long time.
