The waterfront is an attractive destination with Marina, smart residential developments and an ideal event space - in other words, an ideal place to hold the annual waterfront Festival. This is the first time we have attended the event and thoroughly enjoyed it. So, a few images to remember the day by.
There were several craftsmen / women operating and they drew good crowds to watch them at work
There seemed to be a lot of soldiers, of sorts, walking about. These two were playing dice with a passing lad!
And then it disappeared!
More soldiers standing about. Must be a battle looming.
Plenty of rather tall people amongst the crowd. Always fascinating to the youngsters.
I didn't think it was funny!
This music troupe were excellent.
Every child needs a balloon.
Of course the eating places along the quay did a roaring trade. What a way to watch the passing activities!
Parts of the waterfront are still to be developed but, with parts already done, promises to be a real asset to the town of Ipswich
On the boarding surrounding some of the unfinished parts, an ever changing panel of art work appears. Usually well worth a peek.
One of the finished buildings, now an hotel.
Some new, some old.
There was even a train to give you a lift to the quay from the town.
The family all ready to go.
An ice cream always helps the day but eventually tiredness sets in!
