After a fruitless attempt to buy some goats milk for Daniel in Reedham, we cruised along to the Berney Arms, stopped there for lunch at the pub and looked round the windmill. Afterwards, as we cruised across Breydon Water to Yarmouth, which gave Daniel the ideal opportunity to race ahead in the Little Lady and planehis boat across the open water, which he loved. We moored up at the very poor Yarmouth Marina, which was a veritable building site as workers were improving the flood defences. We took a taxi to Yarmouth and did some shopping, found the goat milk we needed for Daniel and bought a keyboard for the children to learn and play with.
Our plan for today was to first look around Reedham for some goat milk, as we had run out. We checked the local shops and then walked away out to an old bungalow owned by a chap thought likely to have the milk, but he had disposed of his goats a few days previous! We cruised along to the The Berney Arms and stopped there for lunch at the pub and a look around the windmill which is now kept up by English Heritage. Then the cruise across Breydon Water to Yarmouth. Daniel raced ahead and planed his boat across the open water which excited him greatly.

We moored up at the ‘Yarmouth Marina’ (as it is laughably called!) And the harbourmaster then collected £5 each for both of our boats. We had also to moor against a veritable building site, downwind of clouds of dust thrown up by dumper trucks and diggers. The Port Authorities are improving the flood defences and constructing a high wall alongside the moorings. We took the taxi into Yarmouth and did some shopping in the precinct. We found masses of goats milk in the health shop and I bought a multi-function Yamaha keyboard for the children to learn and play whilst on the boat.
