We used a free leaflet to guide us on a walking tour pointing out historical places of interest in King’s Lynn. The tour took us to St Nicholas’ church which was currently housing an art exhibition. One of the church guides told us we should not miss going to see the nearby exorcists house which we found to be quaint and highly unusual. Unfortunately, it being Monday, we weren’t able to visit the museums as they were closed. We stopped for elevenses in a very down to earth café near the bus station, where we enjoyed the friendly banter and chatter between the locals and staff.
Whilst on the walk I chatted to a lady who had seen me taking photos and she asked what I thought of King’s Lynn. I said I liked the historical parts of the town. She told me she had moved there from South Africa about a year ago to be closer to her son and that she loves the place.
We had lunch in the delightful Tipsy Teapot where we decadently had a glass of wine to accompany our fish goujons which came with vegetable crisps and salad. After we had eaten, we completed the history walk ending up back by our hotel.
We hopped in the car and drove to Gooderstone Water Gardens which was a lovely way to spend the afternoon. Due to the lack of rain we found that the water levels in parts of the garden were low, especially so near to the bird hide.
Before dining in the hotel restaurant we relaxed in our hotel room taking in the view over the River Great Ouse
I loved the place and how nice you met lady who moved there an year ago and spent some pleasant time while exchanging historical information.
Oh I loved your smile that goes beautifully with delightful color of your outfit. Stunning dress and lovely you
It was lovely to speak to her and enjoy her enthusiasm
Thank you for your kind words
I would like to visit King’s Lynn one day.
I think you would enjoy it. There is a lot of history to see in the town.
