We had a snow flurry as we left to go out for the day and it was bitterly cold!! Spring.. I need convincing!!
Started with breakfast at McDonalds...!!
First stop was Flatford Mill... (there's an RSPB Wildlife Garden there.. that was open; on our last visit it wasn't)
We went for a wander along the river - in the icy wind!
Then onto Melford Hall (via Waitrose to shop for dinner)... in search of lunch in the new Tea Room :D Tomato Soup and rolls.. very nice! And we had this in the Park Room...
After a tour of the house and gardens, we needed a cuppa to warm us up again. So it was Lemon Cake and Victoria Sponge... very very nice!!
And Luxury Hot Chocolate.. which, regrettably was rather disappointing being a bit weak in the taste of chocolate.
a great way to finish a three day birthday... thanks Pete - it was a lovely day out
