Harry spins down the curly slide
A Trip to Waxham Sands, Horsey, Norfolk - 27th August 2016
The Van gets another trip over to the East-by-North-East Norfolk coast at Waxham Sands, in the dunes just outside Horsey. The site is absolutely packed, but at least the weather is significantly better than the wet weekend from the year before. We also get on the bikes to discover the Nelson Head pub in nearby Horsey - a well-worn but great traditional boozer with good food and tons of beers.
