Jersey

Tuesday 28th June

Got the 9am ferry to Jersey. Bit of rough crossing, but empty so quick. Got to Jersey about 1pm found the hotel and managed to check in about 1.30pm.

Went out on and had a walk around and tried to find my bearings. Quite shocked how many shops there is. Walked around the waterfront and found swimming pool, cinema, pizza hut and KFC.

Went to the bus station and brought a 3 day bus pass. Next walked around the bay and caught the ferry to the Elizabeth castle. Very good place, lots to see and walk around and a couple of exhibits to see.

Spent about 1 1/2 there and then walked around to beaumont. Didn;t look that far away but it was. Then went to the shop there and then caught the bus back.



Wednesday 29th June

Had breakfast and caught the bus to gorey and went to the castle of Mount Orgueil Castle. Spent about 2 hours there and it was fun.

Then came back to hotel, had a quick lunch and then caught the bus to the Jersey War Tunnels. It was a good exhibition, but I felt that it was missing something.

Came back again and went to St Bredale Bay and sat on the beach. Next caught the bus to Greve de Lecq on the Blue Explorer route and this meant going down to Cobriere Lighthouse and long st Ouens Bay. Greve De Lecq was nice and then came back on the number nine,

Thursday 30th June

In the morning got the 9am bus to Durrell. Loved Durrelll like the Gorillas and the Lemuras. It was great to walk around in the sun.

Came back about 12 and then caught the bus to Plemont. The beach had caves and waterfall and cafe on the top where I had a crab sandwich.

Then back in the hotel about 4pm and relaxed next to the pool and went on the waterslide and so did some adults.

Walked up to the grandmarche for some dinner and a look around. Came back had dinner and then had some nice sleep
