Thank you all SO much for your comments on my previous
two posts! I scheduled them before we
went away for our half-term holiday, and having your lovely messages waiting
for me when we got back softened the blow of returning to ‘real life’!
We spent the week in a caravan, in beautiful Norfolk, with
my parents. I think Norfolk is my VERY
favourite part of the UK, and (as some of you know already) I LOVE
caravans!!! So, this was the perfect
break for me.
We were pretty lucky with
the weather (a few really sunny days, and no rain), and spent the week relaxing
and exploring the charming little towns and villages, stunning coastline, and
superb eateries of North Norfolk.
Of course, I’ve prepared a little ‘show-and-tell’ of our
trip for you. Here we go.....
Our caravan was a 2-minute walk from the wonderful Wells
beach, with its pine forests, dunes, beach huts, miles and miles of soft, soft sand,
and big blue skies that go on forever and ever.
If you’ve been visiting me here for a while, you’ll know
that, wherever we go on holiday, I always befriend some ducks. This trip was no exception! Yippeeee!!!
Our caravan was right next to a lake, so we had plenty of ducky
visitors.
Of course, I lured them in by offering a range of tasty
artisan breads...... then announced that
I thought they might like a bowl of water.
Simon and my dad said they thought I was crazy (the ducks had an
enormous lake – why would they need a bowl of water!?!). But my mom was in agreement with me, and we
scoured the caravan cupboards until we found a Pyrex casserole dish – perfect! And, did the ducks appreciate it???
Of course they did!
Look at Mrs Duck’s face – she’s clearly smiling!
Here are a few more
photos from our wonderful week away.....
Sigh!!! Why do
holidays always pass by so quickly?!?
Do you have any holidays planned for the summer?

Looks like a lovely holiday and you were lucky with the weather. I love the purple flower photo - you should enlarge onto a canvas. No holidays for us this year as spent too much on building work boo but I will enjoy everyone else's photos xx
ReplyDeleteYour photos are stunning Carly and I LOVED the pics of the ducks having a bath, very thoughtful of you!! I've only been to Norfolk once for a weekend, looking at your photos I must go back, and Mr B does like a steam train! XX
ReplyDeleteNorfolk is so lovely, it looks like you had a wonderful time, we to have travelled on that little train...in the rain ha ha we had our brollies up, it was still the high light of the day for the little people. I'm pleased you had fun.
ReplyDeleteI think we are going to have a stay-cation and enjoy our new area.

I love that bit of Norfolk! My brother and I spent many a happy day running around the pine woods, pelting each other with cones. x
ReplyDeletesuch lovely family time and very clever ducks x
ReplyDeleteLove the shot with the buttercups and the church!
ReplyDeleteI can never decide which county I like best, Norfolk or Suffolk, but if pressed I'd have to say Suffolk by a whisker. Living in North Suffolk by the sea, and within easy reach of Norfolk, would be about the best place to be in the world I reckon.
