We stayed at the only backpackers on the island in New Haven. We got there slightly later than planned as the bus driver forgot to stop in the town. We had to wait around in the town of Cowes across the island until the bus made a return trip.
We thought we'd spend our first day wandering around the island and see what we could see in the area that we could walk.
First up was The Big Wave!
Look at this giant flower!
One of the attractions on the island was a chocolate factory!
There was a massive Dame Edna (what? why?) portrait made of chocolates.
A statue of David made entirely of chocolate!
A chocolate waterfall!
Shoes made of chocolate! My two favourite things!
There was this amazing chocolate bar making machine. We got to choose what kind of chocolate and what flavour you fancy. Sadly (but oddly delicious), the flavours were strange: Strawberry, cola, wasabi and vegemite!
