My holiday in North Norfolk - Part 3 'Adventures on a steam train!'

Hi Pals - as promised here is the final instalment of my wonderful holiday in North Norfolk - it seems like such a long time ago now though - it's good to relive and share the memories with you on the blog!
Ever since I was a wee pup the folks have taken me on train journeys - and they promised me that on our holiday we could go on a proper old fashioned one with steam and everything. So one day we arrived at Weybourne where they run the poppy line http://www.poppyline.co.uk . Mummy was so excited by the toilets as she said it was like going back in time ! The train itself was so old fashioned, it had wooden seats and compartments - my name sake Miss Marple would have felt very at home for sure :) We had a wonderful time chuffing our way through the Norfolk countryside, it is such civilised way to travel - I think it's time to re-introduce steam trains in London, maybe it would make the commuters smile a bit more!!

My holiday in North Norfolk - part 2 'Sun, sand and Swim!'

Hi folks, so as promised here is the 2nd instalment of my Norfolk adventures! During the week we spent a lot of time at the beach as there are some super beaches to visit. I had a wonderful time digging in the sand - the folks thought I was trying to dig my way to Australia! I also had my first swim in the sea - I was a little nervous at first then I just leapt in and swam like an otter ( or so Mum said :)
Now I'm back in London I'm missing the beach very much - I tried to swim in the big puddle in the park earlier but it's just not the same ( sigh ) I will be back next week with my final Norfolk post!

It's my beach!

My Holiday in North Norfolk - Part one 'Crabbing and Carnival'

Hi pals! I've been on my holidays this week - the folks AND the grandfolks all hired a cottage in Blakeney, North Norfolk - they made sure it was doggy friendly so Coco and I could come along too! It was such a magical week - the sun shone every day and I had lots of adventures ! There is too much to tell in one post so I will make it more digestible and break it into different posts.

On the first day we went to Blakeney to catch some crabs! I'm being very stubborn on my lead at the moment, preferring to sit back and relax in the sun rather than walking - sometimes it took us nearly 1/2 hour to walk along the quay even though it's only 100 metres ( hehe )

Guarding the crabs

Walk? sorry Daddy, I would rather sunbathe :)

'Helping' Daddy catch the crabs :)

After the crab frenzy it was time to head to Wells-next to the Sea for their Carnival day. It was so busy that the folks had to carry me for fear of being squashed! I saw some very curious sights - the sun seems to do funny things to humans!

This was a puppet show involving fish - most bizarre 

Enjoying the band 

The carnival proved to be too much for us all so we headed to the fish and chip shop for some much needed replenishment.
Some for me please Daddy!

It was such a fabulous start to the holidays and it got even better - but more on that in part 2 of my Norfolk adventures!
