Crazy Golf, Orford and Glamping
Thursday 17th August 2023
Did a round of crazy golf at the golf course hotel in the morning. Then motored on to Orford, where we had lunch and spent some of the afternoon. From there, we then proceded to our glamping site near Bury St Edmunds, where we’d be staying the night in a “pod” in the woods.

In the pub where we went for lunch in Orford (not our first choice, but the kitchen at the other one was out of action).

13:28:29
Erika waiting for our lunch to arrive.

13:53:41
The macaroni cheese was listed on the menu as having a “crispy topping”. It was in fact literally crisps. I guess it was hard to complain.

13:55:51
I had some kind of vegetarian chilli / nachos thing. Again not really my first choice of what I’d ideally like to eat for lunch but we were hungry by this point and beggars can’t be choosers.

Erika toasting marshmallows.

20:12:57
This cauliflower (with jerk seasoning) was Chie’s idea - wrapped in tin foil and cooked on the barbecue. It worked pretty well.

Erika and the pod.

Chie wafting the barbecue to try and get the last bit of heat out of it.

20:48:01
…we couldn’t quite get this billy can of water to boil on the remaining embers though.

21:03:18
Getting dark now.

Tried to do some night photography. Didn’t have a tripod though.
