Thursday 2.

 


Snapshot of your blogger on the beach at Old Hunstanton last Monday morning. Our hotel, The Le Strange Arms, backs onto the sand dunes and the beach; so after breakfast we checked that the tide was just past the full, then walked down to the beach, turned left, and walked along the beach (having to scramble over rocks in two places) until we came to Hunstanton, and climbed the steps to the promenade. We then walked through the town, and back to Old Hunstanton by the coast road. We think it was about three miles all told. Longest walk I've done in some weeks. We both thoroughly enjoyed it. The North Norfolk Coast used to be advertised as 'Bracing', and as an adjective, I couldn't beat it.

You look well braced against the wild Nor'Easter that howls in from Siberia via Scandinavia Mike.
I hope you got a family discount at the LeStrange Arms, I've just been researching the LeStrange - FitzAlan branch of the family down Arundel way in the C14th. It seems some LeStranges moved to Norfolk.
