End of season

We had a few more days on the water as can be seen the weather was not to good,managed to pick the bad week out of months of sunshine. We sailed up to Ipswich on the River Orwell mixing it with the big boys at Felixstowe docks,note the scale comparison with the small coaster slipping by the container ship it looks tiny but is a sea going vessel its` self.We had a good sail out from the Deben but the wind headed us up the Orwell so we did a combined tack cum motor sail as the wind dropped off up river.We managed to pick up a mooring just off Woolverstone (Jessie does like to go ashore at least a few times a day) and had a peacefull night .Next day we sailed up to Ipswich as far as the docks ,going under the road bridge to remind ourselves of the rat race.We came back to Woodbridge on Friday as the forcast for the weekend was strong winds 6-7,as it was it was a bit lumpy off felixstowe and not to Patties liking.
