Given the lovely weather we went back to Blickling. It's one of Dad's favourites.
A rare thing happened today I got dad inside a National Trust Restaurant! And we had Broccoli and Binham Blue Cheese soup. Very nice.
I went for a wander around the lake.
The Grebes and 4 chicks were still there and there were two terns fishing. The Reed Warblers were very vocal.
One of the cows got on to the path as the fence was weak (so like a responsible NT member I reported it).
I had espied the Lemon Butter Cream sponge when I bought the soup so I wandered into the tea room for slice. It was lovely.
So that's another holiday done. The weather has been amazing when you think how bad it has been. Two weeks to the next one :)

Love the photos of your Dad at Blickling - he looks the very proud "Lord of the Manor" :D.
Soup and cake sound delicious.
Don't forget Glaslyn Ices when you go to North Wales :)
Lovely shots. Once again the flowers and blossoms are just gorgeous. I Love the fountain. Your dad is looking wonderful.
