A trip with the Royal Navy

My eldest Son serves aboard HMS Argyll

Every now and again they organise Father and Son events / trips. Well the latest is to sail from Gibraltar back to the home port of Plymouth as they have been on a tour of the med.

So I fly out to Gib and sail home over 5 days don't know what else we will be able to do but it should be fun
