Back from holiday :)

Well, we're safely back from 10 days in the Pennines, and it's only taken me 2 hours to catch up on LJ :) Many many photos will no doubt follow in due course, and possibly some of the notes I made while we were away. We walked a very long way, saw lots of birds, several mammals and 3 small amphibians, ate far too much in the best of walking traditions and generally had a lovely time. I am now very brown. And a bit achy. We really didn't want to come home.

Welcome back! I'm glad it was such a good week - and I'll see you tomorrow!

Thanks!

Oh, well done. I have been walking the Way a week at a time with Guy T (if you remember him), and there's some lovely stuff in that section. If the weather was as good up there as it was in London you must have had a beautiful day into Dufton.

The previous day to Langford Beck, up past Low and High Force, was even better. It was a bit hazy on Sunday, but yes, stunning! It's just as well the temp drops as you get higher up though, as it was getting a bit hot for walking even so. Couldn't believe quite how hot it was getting back into Cambridge yesterday afternoon: air conditioned trains are very useful!

We're discussing what to do next: we'll probably do the other two sections of Pennine Way at some point, but were thinking maybe something else instead for next summer, maybe back to cycling instead of walking.
