Hover Travel

I have always wanted to travel by hovercraft to the Isle of Wight but I have never done it - until today. I had hoped to take Arthur for a ride on the wonderful steam train which operates on the island, but that was closed today. So, not wanting to miss my hovercraft ride, we went to Isle of Wight Zoo instead. Not a patch on the steam train, but it passed a pleasant couple of hours. Still, the hovercraft was the main attraction, so that is why she is today's blipfoto.
