We were lucky enough to pitch again at Baltic Wharf for a few days this summer. The visit was mostly to see the family, the ferry to Broad Quay and the number 9 bus proved very useful (and would also be for others wanting to explore the Whiteladies Road specialist shops, cafes and the excellent Bristol Museum and Art Gallery.) Try a bit of "Banksy" spotting en route! On the hottest day of the year so far we also decided to visit Brandon Hill and Cabots Tower (Bristol's answer to Scafell Pike, be prepared for a steep climb!) Wonderful views at the top and surprising water gardens in some much needed shade. There is always something new to explore in this lovely city.

Oh, I forgot Shaun the Sheep, right outside the Baltic Wharf gates and many more of him to find on the special charity trail!
