Saturday 24th February - walks **** – Sunrise prom and Falkenham circuit – sunny periods.

Walk 1.

Amazing for the second day running we have sunshine so I head down the seafront at 6.30 to catch the sunrise which is at 6.50 today. The full moon looks great first thing but despite being clear inland there is a large bank of cloud out to sea which delays the arrival of the sun. I decide to amble to the end of the prom at The Manor end and hope something good happens? I reach the end of the prom without much sign of anything good but spot a ladies bikes leaning against the sign for the little kiosk and think there is a photo opportunity here:) I think the bike had been abandoned as the rear tire was flat and the wheel was seized up so I didn’t think anyone would mind if I borrowed for a bit so pushed it to the edge of the prom and got a few nice pics as the sun made an appearance above the clouds and after a lean spell was lucky enough to get a pic of the bike on ITV, About Anglia weather forecast today:) The day then turned out really lovely with fairly clear skys and light winds, I got some pics of the beach huts and Martello Tower as I headed home for breakfast with the prom fillinng up now with mainly dog walkers! I then mannged to do my exercises in the back garden for the first time this year!

Walk 2.

It was too nice a day not to do something, Mag did not feel like a bike ride with near eye still not right, hopefully things will improve when she gets her new glasses on Tuesday, fingers crossed. So I packed another picnic and we drove out to Falkenham Church for lunch with ‘Emily’ enjoying the sunshine and peace and quiet. There was a buzzard about and a couple of deer in the distance, just lovely. I had already walked the best part of three miles today so we didn’t want to go too far so just walked down to the River Deben which was still another 2.40 miles! Thenn home to watch a couple of rugby games which were pretty dull with Englannd being particularly poor but at least Ipswich had another good win!
