    We are heading back to the Needles again today to see what we didn't manage to see earlier in the week.

    We will have a good walk around the country park here first though.

    I'm thinking bacon and egg sandwich for breakfast or maybe egg and soldiers. Dinner later is salmon, jacket potato and vegetables. 

    We have a few options for where we can stay tonight so will take our pick later.

    Change of plan for tonight. We have found a lovely waterside pub stop for the night. So we are eating here tonight.

    I have a night off 😀

    Dinner last night was alright pub grub. Nothing out of the ordinary but alright. The location made it.

    It is our last night on the island already. It has flown by.

    We are on a site not far from the ferry terminal tonight. Last day of exploring. 

    We are going to find some breakfast in Ryde this morning and dinner later is minted lamb shanks with jacket potato and vegetables. 

    I don't think we will be having a massively spendy day today.

    Gosh it’s really flown by. I find when you cook from scratch a lot meals out are often disappointing. Great location though and it’s nice to have a night off cooking. 

    Enjoy your last day. I’m sure it won’t be long until your next trip.
