Sheringham

We're at the beach! As soon as we got everything unloaded, I raced the short block over to see the ocean stretching out into the distance to the north, view broken only by two giant wind farms on the horizon. It's a long ramps and three flights of stairs down - but worth it. The waterfront is cute, with lots of little colored cabanas along the walkway. The tide was out when we arrived - things looked quite different a few hours later. 



Sheringham is a tourist town these days, packed with apartments and hotels near the beach, shops and lots of people. The town is old - it was listed in the Domesday Book in 1086 - but I think it was a fishing village for much of its history. 




Driving around this town is difficult, with narrow roads, parked cars, and people walking everywhere. But we've been able to walk to high street easily, and to Tesco. I love shopping at Tesco! It may be a blot on the landscape, and other terrible things, but I love their vegetables and fruits and meal deal stir fry kits and the way they have a few cheap simple items that price match Aldi in most areas (like £1 peanut butter and £1 for a kilogram of amazing carrots). I like Tesco almost as much as I like Aldi!
