Another big day today: 1300m of climbing over the Clywydian Hills and 18.5 miles. Needless to say I am at the pub in Bodfari, before the final climb up to Sodom for the B&B. Two nice pints of Abbot are going down smoothly, restoring the circulation to the feet.
I reckon the views would have been stunning today, but as seems to be the norm, I was in mist / haze all day. Right at the end I could see down to the Dee estuary, but the walking was good. I have to admit to being a little tired after our efforts last night at the Crown at Llandegla and some of today's hills were a bit of a trial...
Breakfast this morning was out of this world: Melon with raspberries and strawberries, followed by poached haddock and grilled baby tomatoes on the vine with mushrooms.
That set me up and they sent me off with a corker of a packed lunch, as there was no possibility of fitting a pub in today.
I shall shortly set off to the B&B and sleep the sleep of the dead!
I have just realised, I have been walking for a month!

ReplyDeleteI am so enjoying your blog. It is becoming just like a "book at bedtime" on R4! Must be cack (Erse) having boringly nice weather every day. I expect that will change as you reach the scottish highlands and fall in with a bad lot such as Tom and Eddie - aye you have been warned.......
