We did it!!!

Finally did the walk at Blakeney Point after 3 years!!

We parked the car at Cley Beach carpark and starts the walk from there onwards. The first information board near the carpark inform us of our starting point and 'warn' us that the far end is approx 4 miles.

Walking west along the shore (that's left as you face the sea), and just kept walking (Oh Boy, it's harder that said cos it's a pebbles beach and every step you take sinks into the ground and slip back!) We passed a disused building on your left and that where you know that you're halfway there. Luckily, as we get closer to the end of the Point the walking becomes easier as we were able to walk on hard sand.

The Blus House is in sight
Finally the end is nearer and the Blue House (which we found out later that it was the Old Lifeboat House) was in sight... Exhausted, but can't give up now

Old Lifeboat House
So we are at the Old Lifeboat House but there's no seals!!! we walked this far for nothing *@#&*^# plus we need to walk 4 miles back (UGH!!!!)

Information Board at far end
We found another information board at the far end and thought we MUST take a picture of this as evidence that we DID walk to the far end.

After a 10 minutes break, we walked the lonely walk back.
