A Fairly Socially Distanced Week

[SwanR]

Loved your tale. Hope you can come back soon.

Incidentally I have seen a lot of first timers asking on social media about routes they can plan around being in a pub every night. That’s definitely not for me but seems to be the image some folk have of a Broads holiday. Like you I would have enjoyed people and boat watching from afar.

Wonderful blog, thank you. With us aiming to return to the Broads, after a long gap, next year I got a somewhat anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach with your tale of the mayhem on Salhouse Broad. Not the Broads I grew up to love! I have never seen a paddle board on the rivers. And there may have been the odd canoe but not many. There also seem to be far more day boats than there ever were. Nevertheless, your tale (Salhouse Broad not withstanding) has whetted my appetite even more.

Thank you again.

It’s not that bad. Get away from Wroxham and Salhouse and it becomes a lot calmer. Get down south and it gets even more so. Wider rivers mostly, fewer craft on them.

Although Salhouse was undeniably frantic when we arrived, it was calm again by five. The fact that it was a hot Sunday at the start of the school holidays will also have been a factor.

Even then, it was a brief interlude of busyness in a very relaxed week. As Helen says, you'll be fine!

Thank you for the reassurances. Just hope we make it from Spain next May!! We have our ferries booked.
