400 years later...

Recently they reenacted Nelson’s Thames funeral procession on the 400th occasion of the Battle of Trafalgar (and Nelson’s death). A flotilla of cutter boats recreated the appearance and order of the original procession. What was surprising was how small the boats were, and how fast they moved (hence the blurry pics, at least, that is our excuse).
