Whereas the spit at Orford is growing, the cliffs at Dunwich up the coast are being eaten away at about the rate of 1 to 2 metres a year. Perhaps the shingle ends up on the ness.
The tops of the cliffs are covered with a sea of pretty purple heather. The day was still very hazy but we bought bottles of elderflower fizz and had a wander around. No pics as my camera battery had died.
Home via Tescos at Woodbridge for some soya milk for me and a UK adaptor. Another delish BBQ for dinner. We are very tired. I cut the arms off a top so I have something cooler to wear tomorrow - the weather is so hot!

The heather is beautiful, was it so when you were there? Just lovely, I have never seen such a field of it in person. Are your falls normally so warm?

This is autumn in Suffolk 2006, sis. It was a VERY warm autumn.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite places in the UK is The Hole of Horcum in North Yorkshire. When I saw it, it was covered with heather and just breathtaking! Thank you for reminding me of that day!
ReplyDeleteOh how I'd love to stand in a field of purple heather.
