Norfolk Broads boating

A few pictures I took yesterday whilst on my first Solo outing on our new boat.

Nothing special as I was concentrating on piloting the boat at the same time

They were a bit hard to take one handed whilst holding the helm at the same time

There are plenty of photographic opportunities though so can't wait to explore further

No, I wouldn't.

Lovely photographs, does make very envious that you are able to spend time out on the Norfolk Broads.

Hopefully this is something I would like to do again.
30 yrs ago I last did this.

I only wish we could spend more time.

The boat mooring is about an hour and a half in the car from us so we aim to make use of it when we get a chance and the odd day off etc.

We have two new kittens at home which means we can't go for longer periods yet until they are a bit older........roll on next year
