Wednesday 8th June – bike **** – Two rivers, Deben to the Orwell –
sunny and warm.
The day started off cloudy with some rain but that soon cleared away and
sunshine arrived allowing me to do my exercises in the garden which became
pretty warm too:) I had one eye on the wind hoping for a windsurf, I got
close to hitching my trailor for a trip to The Manor or Levington but
changed my mind last minute with the winds looking marginal, so had lunch
with Mag before heading out on my bike with fingers crossed there were no
showers as the sky was now full of some impressive clouds! Mag stayed at
home to bake for our visit to see our Grandson on Friday, I headed down to
the prom turning left taking photos as usual enroute. At the Fludgers I
headed inland a short way before re-joining the prom At Brackenbury cliffs,
past The Dip and golf course leading to Felixstowe Ferry. I stop here for
my cake and to watch the ferry go back and forth. Though the boat yard and
out onto the Deben path turning off along Marsh Lane with some really black
clouds approaching but luckily there were only a few spots of rain! On
through The Grove and Abbey woods to Langer Park and onto the view point by
Felixstowe docks just in time to see a large container ship leave! Back
through Landguard Nature reserve and onto the prom and home where Mag had
finished cooking and was relaxing in our very pretty little garden which is
in full bloom:) The wind had really picked up now in fact the westerly wind
exceeded 20 knots all afternoon so those who went to the Stour for a late
sail to catch the tide probably had a good sail! Might be enough wind
tomorrow for a sail, then I miss a breezy Fri/Sat but hopefully some wind
next week, very mild too!
