#parkrun #boat #friends in weeknotes
- E spent a couple of days at Herne Hill velodrome learning track cycling. Good practice for his upcoming junior triathlon.
- Met up with an old colleague, taking in a few pubs on the River Thames between Rotherhithe and Bermondsey.
- I went to the most easterly point in England over Easter weekend, Lowestoft. We went via Framlingham Castle, where we met up with K's uncle and cousin's family.
- We did the Lowestoft Parkrun. E wasn't feeling up to it so we mostly walked it. The previous week's sporty holiday clubs had finally caught up with him.
- We hired a boat to explore Oulton Broad. It was perfect weather. So peaceful, except for the very loud engine.
- On our way home we went to a very foggy Southwold. There's a brilliant arcade full of homemade, quirky machines. Well worth a visit. The fog cleared up, played a quick game of chess in the fisherman's reading room (E beat me for the first time), then we drove to Aldeburgh and finally home.
