Where it started

A list going round on Facebook, February 2016: "which of these items have you experienced" etc. Some yes, some no, some didn't interest me. However, it put some ideas into my head, and I figured it was time I followed some of my friends in committing them to (virtual) paper. And then trying some of them out. The first challenge was undertaken on 1 March 2016, and I have no intention of ever completing the list: the more I tick off, the more I'll add.

Kayaking: broads on the Broads

I loved my kayaking experience when we were fortunate enough to holiday in Croatia in 2019. However, a fabulous July evening in Norfolk was just as enjoyable!

Kim suggested it and (mercifully) shared my vessel (I think I'd get seriously left behind if I did it alone). We went with the lovely folks of Norfolk Outdoor Adventures on Hickling Broad, who we'd highly recommend for friendly and encouraging professionalism. It was a 'sundowner' outing, and we were fortunate enough to have excellent weather.


After moving across open water and through jungle-like reed beds...


...we paused for a rest and a chat (and a beer!) before returning to base. 


It was an exhilarating and fabulous experience, and one I'd love to repeat.
