A Visit from the Italians, Norwich, Norfolk - 2nd August 2025

Isobel's friend Stefano - along with his family - is visiting from Italy for a few days. As such, we do the tourist thing and take them up to Norwich for a wander around the market and awalk down Elm Hill to the Cathedral. It takes us some time to get there though, as the new Long Stratton bypass is in the process of being plumbed in, and the diversion takes us all around the back lanes of Norfolk.
