We wanted to go somewhere but not too far away so chose a favourite stop of ours by the river at Reedham. Being Saturday I was a bit worried that the parking spaces would be full but we were lucky and managed to park at the swing-bridge end. While we enjoyed a coffee the activities began on the water with a yacht mooring up …
We had a yacht – Ariel – moored in front of us and the occupants appeared, took her cover off, had lunch and then made ready to leave their mooring. They motored away from the Staithe and then set sail and disappeared in the direction of Norwich …
In the space left vacant by Ariel we had a little family of ducks appear – so cute!
A yacht came downriver with its mast already lowered for the bridge …
A train went over the bridge …
and then the bridge was opened for some large private cruisers to go through …
Time was getting on now so after a cuppa and cake we said goodbye to the wildlife and made tracks for the campsite …
When we got back to our pitch we found that the site had filled quite dramatically and we had a lovely old-fashioned bell tent in front of us …
