‘Irene’ anchored in Plymouth Sound,

A lovely old boat anchored off shore, and below, all of the flags fluttering in the wind.
Not such a warm day today, some rain this morning, and then just a bit better later on. We managed a walk on Plymouth Hoe and met up with No.1 son for a cup of tea, and then he came back for dinner.
Irene is a 100-foot ketch built in Bridgwater in 1907, the last ship built in the docks and the only ketch built in the West Country still sailing. It was built by FJ Carver and Son and launched in May 1907.
The extra was one of the many gulls flying around looking for food! I can never take good photos of moving creatures!!!
