Norfolk

We headed off on Friday after work to the airport and got there very early, like 4 hours early. Good thing too as our flight was delayed 3 hours which would have it arriving in Stanstead after midnight. Luckily as we were so early we got bumped to an earlier flight (also delayed but matched up with our initial arrival time). Once we got there, we picked up the rental car (dead handy) and headed off to Gabi and Simon’s. Chatted for a bit then off to bed as we were all knackered.

On Saturday, we headed into Norwich town for a wander, tea and some shopping. Simon picked up Red Dead Redemption which looks as awesome as I had read (will pick it up once I’ve completed some other games). We all went out for an Indian meal that night.

On Sunday we went to a big county fair; sheep, cows, pigs, horses, old cars, crafts, food, games, etc. All great fun. We had a Chinese take away that evening which left us stuffed. More Red Dead Redemption finished off the night.

We all had a very early start on Monday as Gabi and Simon had to head to work but it allowed us to make the most of the day. We meandered around Cambridge for a bit then headed off to the airport but were still too early. We spotted a zoo near the airport called Linton Zoo. It was a charming zoo with lots of bird species and even some humping tortoises! Wish I remembered my camera.

We headed off to the airport and were back home by about 11. As usual with travelling though, we could both do with a day to recover.

Here’s some of my holiday purchases:
