Wednesday 5th January – walk ***** – The Dip to Felixstowe Ferry –
sunny and cold.
Woke to a frosty cold clear morning with not a cloud in the sky so after a
constructive morning at home, I did my exercises, chopped some kindling
while Mag sorted out our new printer plus had contact with our boys too :)
Then after lunch and with the very high tides continuing, we decided to do
the same walk as yesterday to get the flood pics but with a deep blue sky.
We arrived at The Dip at one and set off along the prom towards the Ferry
with more people about today and the waves crashing up the concrete step.
Moving onto to kite beach we spot hundreds of what we think are Dunlins on
the beach as there is no shingle bar for them to land and then they would
all take to the air, just an amazing sight, we stopped and watched then for
ages! The tide was definitely higher today at least a foot more water with
water coming over the sailing club slipway! Loads more water in the boat
yard with most of the boats now standing in water and you could not get
into the yard from the front. So, we headed out along the River Deben path
to check my yellow delict boat which was only just above water before
returning spotting a large seal fishing:) What a top walk it turned out to
be so it was time to return home to sort out my pics, my laptop was really
slow so had to run the clean up programme which sorted it out, had tons of
rubbish on it! Sadly, no pic on the weather today but there might be a nice
sunrise tomorrow and despite getting down to minus 5 or 6 I will wrap up
and take a look!
