Norwich

Pauline had promised to herself that she would one day return to Norwich. It had been a destination on her previous vacation, and held a place in her heart for its strikingly well preserved medieval structures and villages. During her last trip she wrote a note to herself and hid it in an arrow portal in the hopes she would one day return to retrieve it. It was still there.

After retrieving the note we went to the market square where a huge number of vendors are scattered about. Here we stopped at George’s Jacket Spuds to eat jacket potatoes (baked potatoes) with egg, cheese and sausage on them for breakfast.

Norwich was a very charming town and is known for being one of the best-preserved medieval cities in the country. There are medieval churches absolutely everywhere, and most are still standing. One gentleman told us there were 365 pubs and 52 churches in the city, which meant there was a pub for every day of the week and a church for every Sunday.
