... I can reveal the terrible truth!
The water was bloody cold too, we paddled nothing more. It was just going to be an overnight stop but because of the fires we ended up staying for three days... The town reminded me of Sheringham on the North Norfolk coast, past it's most popular, geographically blessed and inhabited by real people.
The B&B was extremely comfortable with terrifying breakfasts... Orange Pancakes with Apple-smoked Bacon... Blueberry, Creme Brulee French Toast and Melon; afternoon glasses of local wine with an "appetiser" (Local brie yesterday afternoon). This gives an indication of what draws people to the town apart from the wildlife, wine and sleepy relaxation... Food. I won't give you chapter and verse as this blog seems to be turning into an epicurean review but there are three restaurants that we used, Duckies

cheap, fresh, local seafood served fast but certainly not fast food eg great big oysters on the half shell. Schooners

of the jaw-droppingly good spicy scallops. Hoppe's ("Hoppies") a five diamond restaurant where I ate the best steak of my life.
