Surge Ahead

This photograph came to our attention yesterday taken from one of the boats we met up with whilst on our way out of the Norfolk Broads on our way to Southwold.

This photograph is taken as the boats waited in Great Yarmouth Harbour for the lifting of Haven Bridge so that all seven boats could proceed to sea.

During last nights huge storm surge this whole area was underwater. The tide breached the flood walls and entered the town. We could have gone over haven bridge rather than under it.

This just goes to prove the power of  mother nature.
