Exploring Norfolk with Ros

On 11 July we met Robin's cousin, Ros, at the the hotel and then set out to quickly explore part of Norwich as Robin had not had time to look around.

Places that we visited included St Stephen's Church before passing the old Guild Hall

as we walked towards the Cathedral.

We set out to locate the herb garden that I missed visiting the previous day.

The small garden was extremely colourful.

We then walked down to the river and waited at the Red Lion while Ros collected the car.

The Bishop Bridge which crosses the river  at this point was built in 1340 and is the only surviving medieval bridge in Norwich.

From the other side of the bridge we watched people on the dragon trail.

We then set out to drive to the coast where we were to meet John and Sam (Ros and John's dog).
On the way we stopped off at the village of Reepham for a hot drink and a scone.

Ros then took us to the White Horse hotel overlooking the marshland at Brancaster Staithe where we met John and Sam.

We enjoyed dinner on the decking overlooking the coastal path and spent time catching up on events since our last visit four years ago.

We then went for a relaxing stroll along part of the coastal path.

The tide was out and many small boats were sitting on the mud waiting for the water to return.

Others were afloat in channels.

We said goodbye to John and Sam and Ros drove us back to the hotel in Norwich.
It was great catching up with Ros and John and Sam again and also experiencing different aspects of Norfolk.
