Norfolk- Boats, Trains & Seaside
What a beautiful sunny day, perfect for our day at the beach.
We had a lovely walk along the sandy beach at San Palling. The views were incredible and you could see all the way along the coastline. It was the perfect spot to have a friendly game of Boules. They glided perfectly along the sand and it was great fun.
We loved spending our pennies in the arcades, enjoying some good old fashioned seaside fun!
An excited group couldn't wait to venture down the Broads fro the first time. We boarded our vessel at the bottom of our garden and
we soon set off. We became nature detectives, spotting the local wildlife and
were lucky enough to see a Grey Heron.
The competition
was fierce with a head to head game, Boys vs Girls. With some high scores and
great strikes the boys were crowned champions! A special congratulations to
Karl, who was the highest scorer for the boys.
After our great days out we loved ending with a few games of pool at the local pub. With his able assistants, Midi cooked up some real feasts on the BBQ, too.
All aboard the old Steam
Train! It was a memorable sight as
the very grand, Regiment train pulled into the station; the sound and smell
was something that we wouldn’t forget. We took our seats in the old fashioned
carriages and the ticket master came and punched our tickets. The whistle blew
and we were off making our way through the picturesque countryside towards the seaside town of Sheringham.
It was such a memorable experience to meet the Station Master.
We had a wander around the little seaside town of Sheringham that was lined with quirky shops. Then we had a tour of the Life Boat museum. It was
fascinating to read about the incredible job they do
Our luxury cruiser
was waiting for us and we were thrilled to be cruising once again. We saw some
amazing properties along the way with little boats moored up outside. We went under the Ludham Bridge, all crossing our fingers that we were going to
get under ok! But, of course our captain had it all under control! As we sailed home, it was our turn to take over the wheel and steer
our way along the river. We thought we all made very capable captains!
We
got kitted up in our life jackets and we were then shown to our sailing boat.
There was a gentle wind which helped us glide through the still water. We all
took it in turns to put up the sail and steer the boat.
Time to jump into our canoe and explore the waters some more. We all worked well
as a team playing some fun games. Luckily, no one capsized!
