To the south west

Blog keeps freezing me out, sorry! now near Slimbridge and start on the Cotswold way tomorrow. Did not enjoy the Severn way, the towns are lovely but the route is through high wet grass very awkward to walk through Looking forward to getting on the coast.

The whole story

Just to let you readers know I will be writing up the whole trip with photos when we hrt back

Almost like cheating!

Peninne way completed! Lovely dry sunny weather from Hawes to Edale. The notorious bogs were almost dry and I finished with clean boots. It was almost like cheating! Midge had problems on the rocky ground because of his blindness but he it a determined lad. We are now on easy ground for the next week or so en route to the river Severn.
