anteros_lmcHere's a sight that would have been awfully familiar to Ned Pellew and the rest of the Indyboys, though perhaps not from this angle! The Tall Ships Regatta is in Falmouth this weekend and on Friday the Falmouth Maritime Museum tweeted this stunning picture taken by the Devon and Cornwall Police. Doesn't it look gorgeous? I wonder if this is what Falmouth looked like when the Western Squadron was at home?
The ships are leaving Falmouth today to cruise in company along the south coast and up the Thames to Royal Greenwich. Won't that be a sight to behold! I wish I could see them :}

It is a pity that at the time Pellew nobody could to depict Falmouth bird's eye view :)
