Bust on the outside of the Tourist Information Centre at Greenwich Park
A masthead depicting Lord Nelson - Britain's greatest naval hero... Look at the size of it compared to Sarah!
HMS Victory rear view - such detail!
The surgeon's stash
Sleeping hammocks on one of the decks... the ship could house up to 850 men in these cramped quarters!
Leg irons used to discipline drunkards
Grenades (hollowed cannon balls filled with gunpowder) ready for battle
Sarah holding a smaller cannon ball - they came in a number of sizes ranging from these, to a little larger than our heads!
Lord Nelson's bed... How girly!
The cannon rooms - buckets had leather handles, and were used mainly to put out small fires with seawater
Pistols in a case - imagine having to reload one of these quickly when the enemy had landed on your ship? I reckon my hands would be trembling too much...
HMS Victory front view. The amazing mast-head and sail structure confounded us
