Salhouse Broad to Ranworth

Another beautiful morning!

I took Hamish for a run up the hill before breks ...


and then he decided to be in charge of the boat this morning!

We had a visit from one of the ducks we'd been feeding ...

Jamie filled the boat up with water before we left the mooring ...

Then it was all aboard ...

and off we went ...

We began by having a look at the end of the Broad ...

and then made our way back to Horning ...

We managed to moor once again at the Staithe ...

and had coffee outside at the Staithe 'N' Willow ...


When we returned to Neptune we suddenly noticed a mum and babes making their way to the water for the first time ...

They all plopped in and swam off together - aah!!

Time to go again and as we motored downriver we saw some thatchers hard at work ...

with a finished roof next door ...

We were looking for a boatyard where we could get a pump-out and as we approached Ferry Marina we spotted what we required and Jamie soon had us moored up and waiting for someone to do the deed!

The pump-out was soon completed ...

and we moved on once more heading for St Benet's Abbey so the dogs could have a run. I have photographed here so many times that it's difficult to find another angle!



From here we went to Ranworth where with fingers crossed we were hoping to get a mooring for the night. We were lucky!
