Unfortunately we were delayed in Bradwell for an extra day, as gales were forecast and we thought it sensible to delay our departure. Our extra day consisted of walking to Bradwell village for supplies, walking around the marina, and meeting Pussy Cat who leapt around tables, chairs and visitors to the marina restaurant where we took coffee and pudding after Steve had cooked us an excellent chilli!
It was dry for our trip the next day to Harwich, although the wind died and we put on the engine. The sun shone for part of our trip, but the wind was very cold when it blew. We polished off the last of the previous evening's chilli down below for our lunch, and it helped to counteract the cold air outside. The cold wind seems to have blighted all of our trip so far. We are very close to the longest day of the year, but it just doesn't feel close to our normal summer at all!
The boat will stay in Harwich for a few weeks before we begin the next leg of our trip. More regular blog entries again then.
