A Magic Carpet Ride

 I took a ride on a flying carpet today. I swore I'd never use one of the things after this little incident, but as it was Indescribable's and she wanted us all to go out as a family, I grudgingly agreed (she still has her broom, but the carpet is roomier and more practical now she has a babyzilla and another little horror on the way).

 Broom, understandably, was livid. Until I pointed out that the whole point of the flight was to show Babyzilla the sights of Cromer, and that with her on board, stickiness, whining, and various bodily excretions were pretty much guaranteed. Funnily enough, Broom quickly relented, and seemed happy to stay propped up in the umbrella stand with Hat for company while we were out.

 So. Here are some photos I took while Indescribable rather cack-handedly piloted her flying carpet. Needless to say, as this was the middle of the day, we used an obscuring spell to remain unseen to all and sundry below.

As before, hang a left at the lighthouse...

... and straight on to Cromer.

Until Indescribable changed her mind and took us out to sea...

... where she almost did a loop-the-loop...

... before Inexcuseable made her abort the manoeuvre and head back to land.

We skimmed low over the beach...

... heading towards Cromer Pier.

Indescribable took us up...

... and over...

... before flying dangerously low over the pier...

... as you can tell!

We passed west over the pier...

... and then up over Cromer.

Banking left again, we wheeled around the church tower...

...getting great views up the Holt Road, Meadow Road (and car park), and The Croft.

Here's where Babyzilla dropped her half-eaten apple onto a hapless pedestrian wandering along Church Street.

We were almost blinded by the sun when Indescribable banked south - as was my camera, hence the poor quality of this shot.

The reason for the about-turn, Indescribable announced, was that she'd left her purse at home...

...so we headed back east...

... along the coast...

... towards home.

Despite the vast expanse of airspace here, Indescribable still managed to almost hit this poor couple walking their dogs!
