Distance Covered: 6/7 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)

We had three kids to look after and I wanted to have a walk along Bawdsey Beach on the off chance that the board I lost yesterday hadf been washed up - a longshot I know !!! We then had to decide how to get there, drive the 30+ miles or go across on the ferry at Felixstowe Ferry, we decided it would be more fun on the ferry :) so we packed our picnic and parked at the Ferry and took the boat on the short trip across the River Deben - the kids loved it :) it was the first time they had been across. We set off on our walk to Bawdsey Beach along the footpath as the tide was high but soon got to the corner where the water whizzes past. We walked along the sea defence wall and got splashed by the waves and then stopped by a couple of small boats on the beach for our picnic.It then rained on us and we used our raincoats as tents !!! We the kids happy messing about in the sea, paddling and throwing bottles in the sea - sadly there are hundreds washed up :( I ended up walking all the way to East Lane Martello Tower and was gone an hour !!! but no sign of my board :( We set off back to the ferry and got soaked to the skin !!! the kids loved it :) We then had to wave the white paddle to attract the ferry man !! We stopped at the Spar for cake and then went home to dry out - a nice trip :)
