I have had a largely unplugged weekend as we had a family weekend away on the North Norfolk coast. This was not entirely planned and our accommodation did have a good wifi connection I just didn't feel the need to constantly be on my phone and my laptop never left the bag, However, I did carry my pocket camera around and took a few snaps of the places we visited.
There were beaches
 |
| Wells Next the sea beach huts |
 |
| Winter beach scene |
 |
| no sand castles today |
 |
| Wells next the sea |
 |
| Cromer beach |
 |
| Wells next the sea harbour |
Birds..... Norfolk is famed for it's bird life with many twitchers spending hours observing them.
 |
| Seagulls on Cromer Pier |
 |
| Seagulls lined up for the next snack |
 |
| Chaffinch waiting for a feed |
 |
| Keeping a beady eye on things |
 |
| Mallard and Drake with a perfect DA |
Trains, The
North Norfolk Railway runs from Sheringham to Holt and has both steam and diesel trains running though out the summer and on selected weekends throughout the year.
 |
| letting off steam |
 |
| Full steam ahead |
A pier................. Cromer still has an active theatre at the end of the pier and a cafe that does a luxury hot chocolate complete with flake and marshmallow, just the thing on a February day to warm you through.

| Cromer Theatre |
 |
| Victorian seating to sit and take in the view |
 |
| seating all along the edge of Cromer pier |
Quirky finds
 |
| Wells next the sea stamp dispenser, sadly no longer in use |
 |
| Traditional pebble and flint stone wall which is typical in this area of Norfolk |
 |
| Lots of rope, all part of the harbourside |
 |
| tying up in the harbour at Wells next the sea |
 |
| Wall art at Sheringham beach |
I didn't unplug completely and used my phone to take and share some family photos and a couple made it on to Instagram, I think I would find it more difficult to do at home.
Have you tried unplugging at home or on holiday? how did you get on?
