Suffolk

This past weekend Anna, Boz, Nath and I undertook a road trip to Suffolk.  The only request from Anna was that we had to see a castle.  On day one we went to Framlingham Castle and spent a few hours walking around the castle.  The time was drawn out by Nath and Boz playing chess, Borrie really thinks through his moves! 
Nath and Boz to tall for the houses in Framlingham



We went to a sea side town called Southwold and walked along the pier.  Luckily we missed a massive downpour that caused immediate flooding on the roads.  Turns out the Brits dont slope their roads downwards towards a drain, they just make the roads flat with no drains.  Real clever. 

On Sunday, after no sleep as we stayed next to a night club, we visited some beautiful market villages.  The first one we came to was Bury-St-Edmund that has a ruined Abbey in the town centre.  We had fun climbing over the ruins, it so cool how you are able to get up close and touch things.

We then stopped at Lavenham before heading home to London.  Anna and I wanted tea and scones for afternoon tea so the boys reluctantly agreed and ended up wanting more! Gotta love clotted cream.  Thats all the travel for a while.  Hope to plan a few more weekends away during the summer months.


Bad taste, but good fit
