hils | Photo post #5

There was a Royal Naval Museum at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. Half of it was about general naval life and the other was purely about Nelson. I took a few photos of each half but unfortunately I can't remember what some of the things are. Oops. Maybe

drbillbongo will remember

Uh...a figurehead from a ship. I can't remember which one

Biscuits. The magnifying glass is so you can identify which is the lesser of two weevils ;)

Some guy looking through a telescope at the wall

Helm!

Nelson. And we are free to touch him ;)

This was cool. Based on a cast of Nelson's face which was taken while he was still alive (photo to come in a bit) they were able to work out exactly what Nelson looked like and make this wax figure. You can't tell here but he was a lot smaller than you would think. About 5'7 I would say
