All too short.

Bank holiday = Shelagh, Alan and family in Aldeburgh so here we are again.

Not the best start (actually only a short sharp shower) so enjoyed a picnic in the car.

But then everything improved and it’s almost like Groundhog Day – everything familiar and lovely.

Even made a friend where we’re staying

A great few days

It’s August Bank Holiday, and in accordance with tradition we’re back in Aldeburgh for a few days. Staying in a cabin near Minsmere.

And it seems like we have a decent forecast for a few days.

Never been to Minsmere but it was well stocked with birdwatchers, cameras, binoculars etc.

And then on to Aldeburgh which felt like seeing an old friend again. Lovely.

Even hung on to my fish and chips!

Cloudy but still great.

Although not a patch on Iceland…

Stopping off to see Ralph, Frida and Sam on way home (plus new additions )

Just great!

Followed by Aldeburgh fish and chips with the whole family, and then a further introduction to Yaniv (check Google).

Hmmm

Dunwich, which was new to us.

And Aldeburgh looking very fine waiting for the thunderstorm

It’s August Bank Holiday, when Shelagh and Alan and family have their week in Thorpeness, and here we are visiting again. Staying in a nice little cottage just outside Saxmundham.

Usual views …

Plus a bonus from our foreign correspondent (Iceland this time).

Missed thunderstorms and heatwave, and it was gorgeous. Note the coat – it was wonderfully chilly!

Same place as last August, including Granville the dog. Just a couple of days to see if we can avoid the heat and thunder. So far so good.

Read a travel review which said it is impossible to stay long enough to eat everything and everywhere you want to, which is true. Fish and chips, cakes, ice-creams just keep lining up.

And loveliness
