57 Miles on the Dyke

Owen and I finally got back on our walking groove this past weekend (yes I'm sorry, we need to publish Italy notes but I'm writing the Offa report first). The walk started at Hay on Wye and continued on for 57 miles and three days to a small village outside of Welshpool. During the first day we hiked a total of 30 MILES - a new longest for us and I suspected for the family as a whole! Needless to say we were a bit tired after that one but after a fine full English at the Castle Inn in the morning we were off for the next 18 miles. There were sore, wet feet all around by the end of the day Monday but the sense of accomplishment was even greater!



Celebrating mile 27 in Knighton on Day 1 (not knowing we still had three miles to go!)
