The New Forest

Now there's a hungry Donkey! We went on a trip heading south-east of London for the weekend. Our first stop was Southampton where we checked out one of the major ports of England. We spent our time following the remains of the Southampton wall which also took us through the town's centre. From there we drove on to a protected area of land referred to as the New Forest. Apparently one of the Kings of England once quardened off this area as his private hunting ground and this remains till this day. Apparently the animals have right of way in all situations. They are all allowed to roam wild, but some of them are indeed owned by certain "forester's". We had a great time and got to stay the night with one of Larissa's workmate's who also showed us around the Forest. From there we drove down to Poole, a quite popular area with some of the richer, well famed folk. We had a great time all up.
