15th June 2023 Hiking - Walking: Around Felixstowe Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny and hot :) Max Speed: Distance Covered: 4 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Thursday 15th June - walk ***** Felixstowe Ferry - sunny and hot. After two pretty full-on windsurf sessions where I foiled nearly 70 miles so I had a day off from sailing so Mag and I decided on an early morning walk of over 4 miles, my poor old knees/legs are really suffering now! The heatwave continues so we decided to get out early packing our breakfast and driving down to Felixstowe Ferry parking near the Martello tower at 8 in glorious sunshine. We walk over to the River Deben with the tide whizzing in really fast, it was nice to see a few yachts slowly heading out with the bright coloured valerian looking stunning as ever. Then through the boat yard and out onto the Deben path, really quiet too with lots of yellow rape flowers that have seeded from the surrounding fields, loads of birds too, reed buntings, warblers,swans, sky larks plus maybe a marsh harrier and hobby with a lot of dragon fly?s too. We ambled along to our breakfast spot, the picnic benches by the water ski jetty and enjoyed a peaceful time by the river before returning along the lower path bird spotting. We were quite pleased to see the van after a long walk and then home to do my exercises in the hot back garden before our lovely neighbours came for an afternoon chat with cake:) Photo Album here |
