Felbrigg Lake Walk, Norfolk

27/6/2010

After the beach and strawberry picking excitement we still had two hours to kill before Lucy got the train back to Norwich, we decided to go to Felbrigg as it was nearest and walk around the lake. It was still really, really hot and after we walked around the lake we went for an ice cream. In the toilets we saw how sunburnt we were. Then it started to hurt and itch like mad. I hate the sun sometimes.

As we walked around the lake we saw hundreds of teeny, tiny newborn frogs - they were literally about the same size as flies. We tried really hard not to step on them but I fear we may have become frog murderers.

Baby Frogs! They were so tiny

Rachel and I decided to take a trip down memory lane and go feed the ducks on the river that runs through Salthouse, we brought a loaf of bread for 82p, that the ducks and swans etc devoured. It was a better visit than when I last went, when me and lucy had to take cover in the car to avoid getting mugged by seagulls.

After we used all the bread we took a trip along the coast to Wells, it was so hot and we got pretty lost.
