Update Post

I haven't posted much in a while. I was sick last weekend and that was no fun! This weekend we are planning an  exciting day trip, but I am going to keep the location top secret till I post pictures on Sunday :) In the mean time here are some pictures of Cambridge. Went here the weekend before the big seal trip. I guess these just got eclipsed by the seals ... :)

From Home

Got an awesome care package from Mom and Dad today!!

Not only was there candy corn and goldfish crackers :) :) but there were also really cool Halloween decorations in the box!!

Thank you Mom and Dad!!!

Seals, Seals and More SEALS!!

Today we went out to see the seal colony at Blakeney Point! 

The day started at 5:15 am with a 4 mile walk to the train station.

Then we took a train to Sheringham and the Coast Hopper to Blakeney Quay to pick up the tickets.

Once we got the tickets we walked along the Norfolk Coastal path to the next town over. The coastal path was a very muddy ridge that was very pretty but a very slippery 1.5 miles.

This guide sign was particularly helpful. 

Once at the Morston Quay we had a little time to kill. So, we got some pictures of the seal carving there!

Then it was time to hike out to the boat. It was a very pretty sea shore path we were on. 

All aboard the boat! This was our seat companion Henry.

The first seal siting!!

So many seals!!!

You could tell who were the show offs and curious ones :)

The really, really big grey ones are carrying pups who will be born around Thanksgiving!

Such a cutie!!

A couple of the seals got into a spat and their barking was confusing Henry.

Want to see more cuties like this guy? Check out my Facebook page for a full gallery of my pictures from the day. :)

Socks

Cute or colorful socks seem to be the big thing here. Especially for guys. Here are some hippo socks I got the other day. :)

Eaton Park

Here are some pictures from a park that is really close to campus. I have been told that the one or two times a year that it snows here, this is the place where everyone in town has a massive snow ball fight.

Cooling Headache Pads

These are really cool, but a bit like sticking a menthol scented fish fillet to your forehead...
