    Incredibly wonderful weather for the first 5 days. On Sunday we did all the Huntingfield walks, which are great and finished with beer/cider on the green from the pub next door. Bird watching at Minsmere and Hazlewood Marshes (near Aldeburgh) and Snape to Iken walk were all great. Weds was Orford - always a joy, especially the Jolly Sailors and the castle. Then the rain came so we went to Beth Chatto's Gardens near Colchester and the last day was spent at Sutton Hoo.. went to the latter many years ago and it is now really wonderful. This cottage is in a great location and very comfortable for a couple, with 2 sofas! Thank you for the wine, milk and biscuits. Sadly the rain did the beautiful yellow roses in!!
