Friday 5th August – bike **** – Around Felixstowe including lunch at Levington Bay – sunny and warm.
With wall to wall sunshine with a good NW offshore breeze I was very tempted to go windsurfing at The Dip but in the end I decided to
head out with Mag for a picnic lunch on our bikes:) Took the Trimley route, over the big footbridge and down to Levington Bay beach for
our picnic. Got a message from windsurfing mate who moved to Wales saying he was in Suffolk walking from Nacton Shores to Felixstowe,
we just missed him at Levington but Mag bumped into him at Felixstowe for a chat:) The tide was low on the River Orwell with a good
breeze blowing over the water with several yachts enjoying the conditions. There were a few waders about, a big flock and geese,
cormorant’s, egrets and some swans to entertain us. So, for the second day in a row, we enjoy our chicken sandwiches by on the banks of
the Orwell, then return up the hill past Loompit Lake taking the tree lined route back with most of the wheat field now harvested! At
the docks Mag heads for home while I do my usual trip to the view point and home along the busy prom! With a big high over us now for
days and no wind forecast as the temperatures head over 30 degrees again next week!
