Hiking - Walking: Needham Market Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: sunny periods Max Speed: Distance Covered: 7.26 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
After a good nights sleep in the car park near Needham Lakes I was up at
5:30 and out with my camera but sadly no nice shots as it was a very poor
sunrise :( I did a circuit of the lake by which time Mag was up so we went
to the paper shop open at 6:30 on a Sunday morning and parked up at the
spot we had yesterday by the water for breakfast and to watch the old boys
with their radio controlled boats !!! and make up our minds what we were
doing today ???
We decided as it was a nice day to start off walking from Needham to
Baylham and hen see where we would
end up :)
We walked through Alderson Lake, a spot I used to fish many years ago and
on to Pips Ford where we saw three horses paddling in a lake and Mag
spotted a kingfisher :)
We arrived at the Baylham rare breeds farm before it opened at 10:30 and
headed into the country turning right in Baylham village past Darmsden and
it's remote church and onto the Needham Red Lion for a lamb lunch :) it was
not the best meal I have ever had with well undercooked veg and average
lamb :( remind me never to have a roast out again as the gravy is never as
good as Mags !!!
We then had the stop off quickly in Ipswich for abit of shopping - one
store only ,that’s my kind of shopping and home - tired out but enjoyed
every minute :)
So only three more days before we are off to France in search of some snow
:) failing that we will head to the Med for some sun.
Lets hope the wind returns before I forget how to windsurf !!!!
