title A Trip to Orford Castle, Suffolk - 14th March 2009 intro Jen Mac from Blackrock, Dublin, is over to visit Isobel and Fred. The morning after a home-made curry night on Friday we head over to Orford, on the Suffolk coast. Once there, we have a poke around inside the interesting building that is Orford Castle - an 11th Century keep built by Henry II, and which it is still possible to actually imagine living in. We follow that with lunch in the nearby Kings Head, before dropping Jen off at Ipswich Station for the coach back to Stansted. imgp3737 It's Breakfast o'clock - and Fred has goo all over himself imgp3755 Church Street is closed following a house fire imgp3756 Sylvia looks at Fred imgp3758 Alan lets us out after our pub-sitting session imgp3760 Down at Orford quay imgp3761 Boats on Orford Quay imgp3762 An old timber shed imgp3763 Looking out on the river imgp3767 Isobel, Fred and Jen Mac imgp3774 Jen and Isobel get giggly in an old boat imgp3776 Nice old houses near the car park imgp3778 The sign tells it straight imgp3779 Orford Baptist Chapel imgp3782 The gang mess about on an old cannon imgp3784 Fred on a cannon imgp3789 Fred bounces around imgp3795 Nosher hauls The Boy around in a björn imgp3799 Up the winding steps inside Orford castle imgp3801 A pigeon nests on a castle windowsill imgp3805 A view from the castle imgp3807 The view from the castle over Orford imgp3815 Isobel looks insouciant imgp3816 It's like a "spot the difference" for symmetry imgp3820 A nice old car in the square imgp3826 One of the church pillars is a bit "used" imgp3827 Porcelain cats stare out of a window imgp3833 A derelict Class 47 Freightliner loco at Ipswich
