Today was spent in Norwich, starting at the Cathedral, where there is a pair of nesting peregrine falcons with four (?) chicks nesting high up on the tower. For those who are interested, this is the link for the Sheffield falcons, which Diva has been watching: http://efm.dept.shef.ac.uk/peregrine/ . She saw one of the chicks crawl out of the egg, assisted by a parent who helped to break the shell before eating it.
The cathedral also has some attractive modern stained glass and a highly polished bronze font.
Norwich is another very attractive Small Cathedral City, with history as well as modern shopping and facilities. The day did not start well because the Park and Ride does not run on Saturdays from the place planned (but it doesn't say so on the leaflets). So it was drive into the city very slowly in one lane of traffic, the other being reserved for the non-running buses.
Diva bought two new T shirts, which will help with warm weather wardrobe planning but not with wardrobe storage at the hotel.
