Sunday 11th September – bike ***** – Around Felixstowe including lunch
with ‘Emily’ – sunny and warm:).
What a lovely Sunday, a touch sad but lovely too, we started watching the
Queen leave Balmoral, Mag had a few tears as it reminded, he of her dear
old Mum:( Had a nice morning at home, I managed to do my exercises in the
warm sunshine in the garden before packing a picnic and heading out on our
bikes, perfect cycling conditions too, light winds with warm sun vey quiet
too, just how we like it:) We thought we would have our lunch with
‘Emily’ at our favourite Falkenham Church. Down past the Grove to Marsh
Lane, a quick look at the River Deben where the tide was really high before
continuing up past Kings Fleet to the church where another family were
enjoying the view but our bench was still free:) We enjoyed a wonderful
picnic with stunning views down to the Deben where yachts were slowly
sailing past with squirrels in the trees, we heard buzzards and woodpeckers
before carrying on the usual route back on bridle ways and footpaths not
seeing a soul! Back to Felixstowe along the tree lined way with views down
to the River Orwell. Back home at 2.45 leaving us enough time to change and
walk down to the seafront at the end of our road for the Proclamation for
Charles III at Felixstowe Town Hall. The weather was perfect for the
ceremony with a good crowd gathered too. We managed to sit right at the
front in front of the town hall steps where the microphone was set up. We
watched Suffolk’s great and good troop out as the mayor addressed the
crowd and verry moving it was too, the highlight for me was Mag’s singing
of God Save the King with top three cheers:) Then back home for a visit
from our son Dan with Jay fresh from getting some lovely baby clothes for
the new Granddaughter due to arrive in January – top day all round :)
