YACHT ON THE RIVER BURE, NORFOLK

After breakfast we got the coach to Wroxham on the Norfolk Broads and had a trip along the River Bure on a paddle steamer - The Southern Comfort. Nice trip but weather was rather chilly.

Had a look around Wroxham afterwards. On the way back to the hotel we stopped off at a pottery owned by Ernie Childs which was housed in a building which used to be a fish smokehouse. It was made mostly of wood salvaged many years ago from wrecked ships. A very interesting place - and Ernie Childs is quite a character. More info HERE

Then back to hotel for evening meal. Food at the hotel was rather basic but mostly Ok. We all had to queue up for the main course - reminded me of school dinner time.

Norman wanted a walk out after his meal so I went along to keep him company. Later on the hotel provided entertainment. A female singer who was quite good and a couple of games of bingo.
