Arriving in Norwich...

We made it to Norwich quite early, so had to wait several hours before being able to drop off our stuff at the apartment we were renting for several nights. While Jimmy waited in a café with our bags, Veronica and I went in search of a cash machine and some ideas of what to do in Norwich between running errands.
Norwich Market has been in operation at the present site for over 900 years! It remains one of England’s largest markets.
A quick glance at the booths, however, didn’t inspire us much, so we ventured further where we discovered that there was a food fair in a park and a chocolate festival in a school. We returned to both after dropping off our luggage at the apartment and enjoyed some great vegetarian food while listening to a local band followed by some incredible vegan chocolate ice cream.
We didn’t have much time to explore the quaint shopping area, but it’s nice to know that we’ll have such a great city to wander around when we visit Veronica over the next few years.
