Lowestoft

Had a lovely few days in Lowestoft visiting family,took my mum with us,she stayed with my cousin and we parked on the drive!!

visited the transport museum and couldn't resist the gorgeous vintage caravan!wish we could have towed it away!

Churnet valley

Had a wonderful few days here,truly blessed by glorious weather.

went midweek,but luckily the steam train was running on the wednesday.only 3 stations,but beautiful countryside.

The stations are really well cared for,and all the staff and volunteers so friendly.

Right next to the railway is a river and a canal,I love walking by canals as they're flat!!about 2-3 mile walk from the campsite was the most wonderful pub,The Black Lion,which overlooked Consall station as well as the river and canal.Lots of real ale and cider as well as incredible lunches!I had a cheese salad baguette and had to take half home as it was so huge!

All in all a wonderful short break,and only an hour or so from home,this weekend we're off to suffolk which is considerably further!

holidays

Just booked to go to Glencote campsite near the churnet valley railway again,well it keeps Dad and lad happy!!
