{mosimage}Last Sunday I went on another plane trip with my Dad, this time to the Isle of Wight. I had not been there before, but we have been taught about it at school. Lots of fossils and dinosaurs were discovered on the Isle of Wight, and so I was looking forward to seeing the dinosaur museum.
The trip was a little bit longer than an hour, and I think it’s definitely worth it. There was a great view of the sea from the aeroplane and I got to watch lots of football, again from the plane! Once again we were working against time as we had to get the plane back – we really needed to stay longer.
The museum is good, there a several good exhibits which are very informative. The downside is that some of the interactive stuff was broken and if you dared to put your hand in the holes they had gum stuck in them. Yuck! The gift shop is terrible unless you want to buy keychains or silly moving toys. There is some good art work in the gallery in the museum which is worth looking at. I bought dominos, that was how bad the gift shop was.
There is a lovely beach and many shops where you can buy ice creams and stuff. {mosimage}There are quite a few places to eat, if you like fast food, and at least one place that looks like it’s a posh restaurant next to the museum. Right next to the museum is a crazy golf and the day we were there there was also a carnival. There is a really nice gift shop with hats and china animals, and there are stands where you can get buckets and spades and basically all you need for a hot day on the beach. Refreshment places are everywhere, but be sure to take enough time so you won’t be rushed like we were!
