Though the enormous dead sperm whale was a little unsettling - especially as our dog insisted on rollong on its tail! Joy.

It's a county I love and now that my son and his family are living near Diss I shall have lots of chances to explore it more. Have you read the books by Lilias Rider Haggard - Norfolk Life, Norfolk Notebook and Country Scrapbook? I think you'd enjoy them. She lived in Ditchingham a few miles from the village where my son now lives. Have a lovely holiday.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939962260489747886.post-5903330991275886992012-03-05T15:28:59.049+00:002012-03-05T15:28:59.049+00:00Oops sorry - that should have said Morston Quay!:)...Oops sorry - that should have said Morston Quay!:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939962260489747886.post-65679066167504817142012-03-05T11:11:19.731+00:002012-03-05T11:11:19.731+00:00I don't know Norfolk at all.

It is something we say we must do - my husband holidayed there as a child a lot, and until recently had family in Happisburgh. <br /><br />The earlier photos reminded me very much of the colours and atmosphere of the Northumberland Coast, those huge jewel blue skies and acid yellow foliage take me straight back to the Farne islands last October - so dramatic and beautiful. <br /><br />Enjoy your break, and I hope the weather is as kind to you as in the pictures.Zoƫhttp://zoelynch.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939962260489747886.post-86514189644640355412012-03-05T10:43:36.592+00:002012-03-05T10:43:36.592+00:00I've really enjoyed your post, it brought back...I've really enjoyed your post, it brought back lots of lovely memories of visits to the coast along there through Norfolk into Suffolk. I love the bleakness, wide skies and wonderful sunsets. I have a watercolour of Morston key on my living room wall:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939962260489747886.post-11524516022967888242012-03-05T09:36:09.074+00:002012-03-05T09:36:09.074+00:00Great photos Elaine.

We stayed in a converted barn in a village called Causton near Aylsham. From there we would drive out each day either to Holkham, Blakeney, Sherringham, Cromer and more besides. What memories you have given me.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116574112768767203noreply@blogger.com
