I took a short 4 hour bus ride from Heathrow to Norwich where Heather came to pick me up. She did pretty well with driving on the left (wrong) side of the road! After a nap, we ventured out for my first walking tour of Norwich. We went to a wonderful Indian restaurant, dropped by her office where she got scolded for coming in on her day off and I was chastised for referring to Norwich as quaint (I didn't mean it as an insult, I swear!), then saw the first few of the Norwich 12.
I was excited to be spending time in Norwich, UK with Heather and Nick in the first place but then they surprised me by hiring a boat for the day to cruise down the water in The Broads. Was a wonderful, relaxing time and I can't say thank you enough!
There was so much wildlife to see along the way and while the Kingfisher illuded all 3 of our cameras, we did see it twice I swear! 
"The Moms" arrived the next day and Heather and I drove the 2 hours to pick them up in London. We stopped for lunch on the way back where we enjoyed some delicious sandwiches and ginger beer.
After they had their naps, it was time for "Tour of the Norwich 12" by Heather Lindsay (Round 2 for me!).
The next day we were off to watch Heather and Nick go indoor skydiving with Charlotte and James!
I was fortunate enough to get to meet Nick's parents, Janet and Peter and tour Cambridge with them. They were all such wonderfully welcoming and genuine people. 
Our time in England was well spent yet still too short. Nick and Heather were gracious hosts and I had a great time with their kitties Max and Paddy! 
The cab came the next morning at 4AM to take us the 2 hours back to London where we jetted off to Barcelona!
