Woke around 0900. Got up and porridged. Put a packed lunch together then packed the car. Got away around noon…headed up the A10, then turned eastward, aiming for Old Felixstowe. Found a car park on the seafront, and had our lunch on a strip of greensward overlooking the roofs of countless beach huts. Managed to eat without being attacked by seagulls. Walked northward along the sea wall to the Deben Ferry.
Had a cuppa tea at the small cafe there, overlooking the mouth of the River Deben, and watched the little foot ferry going back and forth. Got back to the car around 1630 and headed up the A12 to Saxmundham. Found the house…No.36 St John’s Road…and unpacked the car. It’s a small Victorian mid terrace cottage with back addition. Sizeable garden to rear with apple and pear trees. Walked into the town centre and did a shop at Waitrose, then dined out at the Bell Hotel, which has recently been refurbished. Came back and watched a bit of telly before shower and bed…
