Sculpture walk ...

at Sandringham. Never knew it was there, perhaps we'd missed the signpost in the past or maybe it's a new thing but it was a lovely short and interesting walk taking in six beautifully carved wooden sculptures.

This was titled "Felix" and appeard to be a monk, under a mushroom with a beaver by his side.

Howling dog.

Beady eyed owl spotting the little rodent.

Angel - two things to point out here, the angel's intricate wings and Ben's strange face!

Sleeping woman.

A boar with her young and a yapping dog.

Afterwards, seeing as how we were close to Kings Lynn, we decided to track down a byway that runs along the Great River Ouse. It certainly didn't start off very exciting, driving past alot of industry along the docks but eventually the off-road led to the most beautiful outlook over the Ouse and the marshes, past some delightful cottages, houses and open land. It's always amazes me how people "find" these homes to live in, tucked away from everything else.

On the opposite side of the Ouse is the tail end of the Peter Scott Walk, which starts at Sutton Bridge. As this is so close to home, we should really put on our walking boots and enjoy the trail, on a day that's not too hot, to see this view from the other side. Information posts had been put up to educate visitors on the surrounding wildlife, the necessity for marshland and how we need to preserve it and protect it from global warming.
