Hiking - Walking: Around Felixstowe Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Fog, sun, rain finishing with sun Max Speed: 3.50 miles (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered:
Friday 27th October - walks **** – Sunrise at Felixstowe Ferry and
prom stroll - foggy start with sun then rain with sunny afternoon.
With light winds and fog forecast first thing I decided to get up early and
drive down to Felixstowe Ferry to catch the sunrise parking just before
7.30. I walked through the Sailing Club to the River Deben and it wasn’t
as foggy as I hoped but still nice, the tide was whizzing in but I managed
to walk along the shingle to the end taking some pics of the moored boats.
I spoke to a fisherman about to set off with his lovely dog to check his
lobster pots at Shingle Street before walking back to near the Martello
Tower as the sun started to break free of the clouds just as the little
fishing boat headed up the coast and I got some super pics of the foggy
boat with sunshine too:) I then returned to the end of the boatyard again
with the sun now on the boats and the wate and sky a lovely blue:) I then
drove back via The Fludyers where I stopped as it was picture perfect, flat
blue sky, sunshine and half of the dock cranes shrouded in fog, I managed
to get one of these pics on BBC’s Look east and the pic of Mag biking
through the puddle at the Ferry continues to be on BBC’s weather for the
week ahead, my best ever month for TV pics:) I made it home just before the
rain arrived which lasted all morning again:( After lunch with the rain
gone and some sunshine Mag and I set off on a walk, first to the post
office then down past Havest House to the prom. We ambled to the pier with
several familes enjoying the nice weather on the beach:) Then home for a
welcome cuppa, the weekend is looking breezy so hope to get out
windsurfling as its been awhile!
