SS Great Britain
Whilst in Bristol recently we visited a few of the sights thanks to Isambard Kingdom Brunel. I’m from Bristol originally so things such as the Suspension Bridge and the SS Great Britain are fairly commonplace to me, especially as I used to walk past them everyday on my way to school. But Morgan and Anna haven’t really visited them properly and the SS Great Britain in particular has had a lot of work done on it recently and is now a ‘proper’ tourist attraction.
It’s actually been done really well, parts have been restored as well as they can and the interior is essentially a museum of life aboard a Victorian Ship. The outer deck and masts / rigging have been restored too. They have also covered the exterior with a glass roof so that you can visit the hull of the ship too. As with all of these things, entry fees are a little steep, but it was well worth a visit.
