Different Post - Seals from Horsey Gap

A bit of a lighter post.

While I was in England visiting sister, she booked us a long weekend away in Norfolk. We had a lovely time and while we were there, I mentioned hearing about seals being seen on the beaches. We went along to Happisburgh which (although my sister preferred to call it Happys-burgh as it made her feel that way) is pronounced Hazebrur. We only learned that as the car park ticket machine wasn't working and we were talking to a local lady and her husband. We ended up talking to them later about seals and such and she directed us to Horsey Gap which was on our way back to the camp at Hemsby. 

We decided to stop there at the way back to our camp and were delighted when the parking attendant told us there were about a hundred of them out on the beach! It was lovely to see them in their natural habitat. I was really pleased to see people giving them space and just sitting and watching them. It was really lovely. 

Here are a few photos





















If anyone is close, I'd definitely recommend it! I would love to visit when they have their pups in winter. There were several swimming in the water, which was lovely to see!
