Sunday 27th August – walk ** The Grove in Felixstowe – Sunny start then
cloudy with heavy rain.
After yesterdays unexpected afternoon windsurf foil I had no plans for
today, I was tempted by a sail at Levington but the wind was marginal and
in the end was glad I didn’t go as it tipped it down with rain with no
wind forecast for days:( So usual morning at home exercises and gardening
with lunch at the new patio furniture. Then we decided to walk to the woods
at The Grove. Probably a bit of a mistake as there was some menacing dark
clouds approaching. In fact, it started to rain when we were nearly at
Abbey woods, quite hard in fact! We sheltered under the trees for awhile
but decided to carry on in the heavy rain. The paths soon became like
stream and we have never seen so much water in the brook that runs through
the Grove. The rain eased as we walked back through the town but we were
already pretty wet! We made it to the cliff top before turning for home to
get out of our wet clothes before a welcome cuppa and cake. We then had a
nice video chat with our Grandson as the rain returned!
