A late morning in Great Yarmouth with some shopping before breakfast and lunch and then the cruise across Breydon Water and up the Yare to Norwich. Greeted by our harbourmaster friend and then to the cinema in Anglia Square and back to sleep soundly on the Paxton Princess
We had the morning in Great Yarmouth and were up and ready to go into town quite early. A "helpful" harbour worker dropped by to tell us of a Haven Bridge lift at 9.00am but this was too early for us. We watched the two boats go up but then left our own for the shops. Coffee and then the shops separately, linking up for lunch together. I bought some nice prawns for tea. The weather cold, windy and wet but, once we had got back aboard, we found a dry spell to get under-way under the Haven Bridge and back into the Broads.

Across Breydon Water against a head wind in something near to a gale and then up the Yare in the direction of Norwich. We had tea on the move and made it all the way to the City and folded everything down to get under the three bridges before mooring up. We greeted our Harbourmaster friend and then set off to the cinema at Anglia Square to watch "Hook" a parody on the original heroic battle between Captain Hook and Peter Pan. This epic film went on quite late but, despite a rough ride from the critics, we enjoyed it. The hike back late to the Paxton Princess but at least Della got to sleep quite easily even though it was late.
