Walled City
... school on an excursion with a Roman soldier in his gear leading them. He was quite funny as he was barking orders like they were his soldiers, they had plastic shields and swords and looked very serious. We then walked the main original street with its mix of old, older and much older such as Tudor buildings dated in the 1600's, lots of people and a market atmosphere with Xmas stalls.

A chance to see a new part of Catalunya and do some birding too. Read ...

These two were sitting close together at the side of the road and did not fly away when my car got nearer. They were probably too tired to bother.
The next 30 or so minutes of driving on country lanes in between Hunstanton, Ringstead and nearby Sedgeford was fascinating. There were hundreds ...
