Sutton Hoo

A beautiful
blue sky and strong gusts of wind as I walked upstream to the Wilford Bridge
and then down the opposite side to the Sutton Hoo Burial site, run by the
National Trust. An excellent visitor centre with a full size copy part of the
ship with its cabin, the chieftain lying inside surrounded by his riches and
weapons; a film; lots of detail on the jewelry; stands showing the way of
life at the time; copies of the clothes of the time that can be worn for
photos.

Well worth a visit with lots of stuff for children. Large restaurant –
very busy.
Jacob Sheep
In a field
next to the visitor centre were some almost fantastic Jacob Sheep.
Extraordinary
creatures.
Bike
I'm getting a foldaway bike like this next Tuesday. Part of getting fit plan. I realise I haven't been exercising since the old folks died over a year ago. I used to swim most mornings, up to a mile. I'll bike down to the Woodbridge swimming pool and get back in to the routine.
