Enjoying the Landau rides in Great Yarmouth
Enjoying the Landau rides in Great Yarmouth

After our night in Reedham, we cruised to Berney arms and then took the Little Lady and speedboat across Breydon Water to Great Yarmouth for the day. A last chance for the girls to have fun and enjoy land before lunch and speciality ice creams on the pier and a trip by Landau to Pleasure Beach. Debbie joined the boys aboard the speedboat on the way back but suffered a badly bruised hand. We then moved from the Berney Arms to Langley Dyke where Diana and I took a walk.

We spent the night in Reedham and then I decided that we should go to Yarmouth today. The morning routine (with Gary and inclusive participant this time) and it was 9.30am before we managed to set off. We moored The Lady at the Berney Arms and then took the Little Lady and the speedboat across Breydon Water. Daniel and Gary were in the speedboat (and me with the family in the other) and they took great delight in racing past us leaping on our wash and spraying the saltwater all over us!

We moored up between the two bridges in the free moorings and then we left the boys to get some more fuel whilst we went on by taxi to the seafront. The girls had fun in Joyland and the pier play-space whilst Di and I sat in the sun as it was another gloriously warm day today. We had lunch on the café on the pier and then speciality ice creams on the pier as well. We said farewell to Yarmouth with a Landau ride both ways along the front with some time in Pleasure Beach in between. It was good to see Debbie and Della playing together and enjoying themselves so well.

On the way back across Breydon Water, we let Debbie ride on the back of the speedboat with Daniel and Gary but she had a fingers trapped under the seat as they leapt across the wash of an oceangoing cruiser which was a calamity. She ended up bruised but all right for now. The cruise after from the Berney Arms to Langley Dyke upstream of Cantley.

The boys played with the speedboat as Diana and I took a two hour walk to Langley Street and Hardly on a balmy evening before retirement to bed tired after our exertion after a much-enjoyed day. The Observer newspaper today featured the poor quality of our water supplies, but we again watched no television today.
