A Busy Day, Southwold and Thornham, Suffolk - 11th November 2012

The Van gets a double outing on a sunny Sunday: firstly, there's an early trip to Southwold to beat the crowds - when we arrive, the car park is empty, when we leave it's nearly full - followed by chips from the café on the pier. After a brief stop at home, we then head off for another wander around an autumnal Thornham estate.
