Sunday 14th July - walk *** – Hemley circuit including picnic by the
church – sunny start then cloudy.
The day started sunny but it did cloud over in the afternoon but we are on
a roll now as no rain again, I had hoped to go windsurf foiling but the
wind did not play ball:( So I did my exercises in the sunny back garden
while Mag pottered in the garden, I helped her dig a hole in the grass to
put an old dustbin to plant up before packing a picnic. Being a Sunday the
seafront is best avoided so we drove over to enjoy the peace and quiet by
parking near Hemley Church for lunch as a buzzard circled above! We then
walked done through the farm watched by the two horses, one with a really
cool platt. The path was wet and muddy for a short section as usual, it
definitely needs a wooden walkway to get over this section then made a
small detour to the left to watch loads of dinghies racing in a light
breeze on the Deben with sea lavender in bloom everywhere, we scared off a
curlew and a family of shell ducks on the mud! We continued to follow the
Deben to Kirton creek with butterflies everywhere and back along the
country path not seeing anyone. It is under two miles but we were pretty
knackered and glad to get back to the van, not helped by the fact it was
close and airless!
