Also known as 'The Adventurous One'As a typical tourist I had to eventually go out and about and explore the city. And from what my eyes saw, Richmond is.. interesting. I haven't been out much but from my 4-hour trip quite a few things captured my eye. I am not saying that it is not beautiful... but I have seen better. Pictures below:
It was quite an adventure getting to Belle Isle. No one knew how to get to the island
(I went there with Harry, he is my boyfriend and we are both from England, doing the exchange program// this is his blog and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it!) so we had to go all the way over to the other side of the river (through an enormous and very interesting passenger bridge {the one from the panorama}) and then walk back again through a hiking trail. When we got to the actual island we were tired and hungry. Luckily I had packed some sandwiches and drinks and we had an amazing picnic on the rocks! We then did some more exploring of the island and it's history from the information signs that were everywhere and promised to ourselves to go back to the island again! Our adventures came to an end and we were sent off from the island by the beautiful sounds of the passing train next to the island. What a great day that was!
