After an excitable journey, we arrived
at our beautiful apartments and unpacked, excited about exploring the
site! Our week was packed full of
wonderful outings and the weather was constantly bright and sunny.
We headed into Sheringham one morning
for an old fashioned steam train ride.
It really felt as if we had travelled back in time! The scenery was stunning and we all sat back
and watched the world go by! We then enjoyed a truly delicious lunch in
Sheringham, followed by a spot of shopping in Cromer. We
then spent a sun filled afternoon on the beach, paddling our feet in the
sea. We even watched the sun setting
over Blackeney harbour.
After a hearty breakfast prepared by
John and Phil, we set off with great anticipation to the Norfolk Show. It was gloriously sunny and there was so much
to see and do! We arrived bright and
early and set off to watch a dog show – they did lots of tricks and made us
laugh. Throughout the day we saw sheep,
cows, bulls, birds, horses, parachutists, tractors and much more! We devoured strawberries and cream to refresh
ourselves and tucked into some scrumptious ice-creams, too. There were so many stalls to look round, each
selling unique gifts. We also looked
around the food tents and tried some local produce.
One morning we headed out to the
historical Wroxham Barns for tea and sandwiches on the coast. We spent a lovely morning there and then we
went on to Horning for a fantastic boat trip on the broads. This was great fun and we actually got to drive
the boat with some guidance from the captain!
We attracted a stampede of hungry ducks when we fed them!
We had some cracking meals during our
week. We ate at a wonderful pub one evening called The George in East Dereham
which served some very unusual deserts indeed!
Wherever we ate, there was a lot of choice and always delicious.
We had the luxury of our own hot tub at
the apartments, which many of us used in the evenings. We sat round with drinks and played games on
a few of the evenings. It was lovely to
make new friends and talk about the things we had done during our days out. It was a brilliant week all round, and everyone wanted to come back for another holiday with JollyDays!
