Over The Solent
Distance 7:44 Miles
Time 2:36 Minutes
Elevation Gain 197 Feet
So we are over The Solent heading towards Southampton the weather again is cloudy & sunny with a gentle breeze.
Starting at the very pretty village of Hamble-Le-Rice we have parked up & the bus is at the stop so a little rushed we get on the bus for the journey to Southampton.
A faultless journey & we arrive & make our way to the town quay walking to the end as if we had come across the water by boat!
Southampton surprised us a newly developed town with nice clean wide pavements which we had to walk along for some way past Queen's park passing through Vokes Memorial Park up & over the river Itchen Bridge funnily enough over the river Itchen! passing through a residential area & on to the coast line through a lovely park the Royal Victoria country park but then the path stopped & we found ourselves back on our friends The Pebbles!!
Luckily this doesn't go on for too long & we are back on pavement. Coming in to Hamble.

The sun is shining on us & we find a cafe for tea & cake meeting a lovely couple with two babies & discover that they are foster parents & have been fostering for many years.
