Tuesday 21nd September- Back to the legs again

It seems to be the story of my life that whenever we get to a nice caravan site we find there is no or limited mobile phone connection whilst there is also no internet to enable us to check the email etc.But today we had decided to take a much longer walk all along the beach to the ‘Martell/ Tower’ and also Noel could take some photos for the BLOG. So we left around 1030, it was getting rather warm today and soon we were stripping down in the heat. We stopped at the big Hotel on the sea front for a cup of coffee and then walked about a mile or so to the tower. We were really getting very hot now and so headed back to town to ‘Kathy’s Cafe’ for excellent toasted Bacon, Blue Cheese and sun dried tomato sandwich and a nice cuppa.

We asked several shop keepers about internet availability and apart from the Hotels the only other place was the Library which we located on the top of the hill and we were able to check for messages. We got back to the caravan and put out the sun chairs and had a little zizz in the sun before heading in for a light dinner.We walked around the complete Holiday Park and it is so quiet, not your usual side by side mobile homes which are for rent, these are for sale to owners and cannot be rented out and so mostly they are for weekends and summers we guess. Some of the Mobile homes are very large about 39 feet by 12 feet with two bedrooms and furnished extremely well.

After an early tea we took a trip to look at the Sizewell Nuclear Power station and also a couple of caravan sites that were close by, but both were not worth considering compared to where we are which is really nice.
