Ventnor
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Ventnor is a seaside resort and civil parish established in the Victorian era
on the south coast of the Isle of Wight, England.
It lies underneath St Boniface Down (which, at 241 metres (791 feet),
is the highest point on the Isle of Wight), and is built on steep slopes and cliffs leading down to the sea.
The higher part is referred to as Upper Ventnor (although officially it is Lowtherville);
the lower part, where most of the amenities are located, being known as Ventnor.
Ventnor is sometimes understood as including the coastal villages of St. Lawrence
to one side and Bonchurch to the other.
Just after we arrived in Ventnor, a friendly cow cat welcomed us!
A very cute fox appeared at seaside road and attracted many tourists.
Ohhh!! The View is breath-taking!!

Shanklin
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Shanklin is a popular seaside resort and civil parish on the Isle of Wight,
England, located on the east coast's Sandown Bay.
The sandy beach, its Old Village and a wooded ravine, Shanklin Chine, are its main attractions.
The esplanade along the beach is occupied by hotels and restaurants for the most part,
and is one of the most tourist-oriented parts of the town.
The other is the Old Village, at the top of Shanklin Chine.

Old Village is the most attractive spot in Shanklin to me!
It is said that the atmosphere of this area hasn't been changed since Victorian era.
The historical styled houses in this areas are cafes, pubs or souvenir shops now.

Film Show
on the Beach
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Extraordinary travelling film show was held at the Ryde beach!
We enjoyed “JAWS” on a (so-so) big screen.
Despite we already had watched this film countless time,
we could feel so excited, and I couldn’t look straight at the scene of Robert Shaw’s terrible last.
Any sharks haven’t appeared around the Isle of Wight
but even so, we couldn’t feel like closing to the beach next day.
