Monday 12th May - walks **** – Around Felixstowe – sunny and warm!
Walk 1.
I woke at 7 to find Mag had already biked around to feed our sons cats so I
decided to have a quick drive down to Felixstowe Ferry to take some weather
pics as the son had returned ! I stopped at the cliff top hoping to see
some poppies sadly they were thin on the ground but the tide was low and
the shingle islands were out before parking near the Ferry Martello Tower
to take pics of the valaren followed by a quick stroll round the boatyard
and home.
Walk 2.
After 3 days of hectic windsurf foiling I decided to have the day off
despite the keen wind from the north continuing but I didn’t fancy
another 50 drive to Wrabness for a gusty sail on the Stour! So we had a
nice day at home, exercises once again in the back garden while Mag sorted
her new plants she bought at Sutton yesterday! Then I backed a picnic and
as it was getting on we just drove down to The Dip for a walk to one of our
favourite picnic spot by the mouth of the River Deben. Once again the
poppies by the beach huts were sparse but the sea kale or cabbage/ on kite
beach near the golf course was absolutely stunning. We enjoyed our lunch
sheltered from the breeze blowing down the Deben and the pate rolls were
delicious:) On the walk back we bumped into fellow weather snapper, Julie
Kemp with her famous dog Betty:) Then home for a cuppa and cake!
PS – was pleased to get a pic on ITV’s About Anglia, my 3rd this week
but it was a photo I actually took yesterday!
