Wifey and I planned on having an adventure to Pegwell Bay Nature Reserve, we have intended to go here for the last few years but have not managed it for no reason at all (although we did drive to the car park last year to check on parking prices).
As I was packing a kit to take, Hobo stove, frying pan, tarp etc etc etc, I had a thought, it ran along 2 lines, Wifey enjoys the fact that I enjoy bushcraft but has no real passion for it herself, also lighten my load, so I changed what I packed, 1litre flask of tea, bottle of water, cutting board, food prep knife and a wool blanket, for food we took, cheese and crackers, and a cake.
Also in the front pocket of my daypack I had my first aid kit, radio, small amount of cordage, hand sanitiser, and a compass.
The walk was beautiful, along a stretch of coastal wetland, filled with a variety of birds, butterflies, and even Exmoor ponies, we didn't see longhorn cattle and some wild sheep also near to the mouth of the river Stour apparently there are seals, so next time we visit we will take some binoculars and a better camera.
We walked for nearly 5 miles as a round trip stopping twice to sit and eat and on the way out stopped for an ice cream all in all we had a memorable day.
