A much nicer day for our last day - plus it was short, only about 12 miles. We were still a few miles from the coast and walked thru a variety of topography for several miles. For a few miles we walked in a gully between high stone fences, felt a bit like a 'secret passageway"
|
Nice walk thru the forest. |
|
Parts of the train were nicely improved. |
|
A few more miles on the moor |
|
Walking on a trail between rock fences |
|
A little town we passed through. |
|
The English populate these sad little holiday places near the coast. We walked thru one to reach the coast trail. |
|
Looks like the North Sea to me! |
|
The trail led us around the coast for a mile or two. |
|
Robin Hood bay at low tide. Where can I put my towel? |
|
Heading into town |
We walked into town and were settled in our last B&B by about 3 PM. Gave us time to clean up and wander down to the water's edge. Robin Hood Bay "town" was a cute little place with a couple of pups and some tourist shops - but no cash machine. After walking to water on the reef (and tossing in our stones from the Irish sea) we celebrated the completion of our walk with a couple of beers in "Wainwrights" pub right on the water's edge.
Monday night we celebrated the end of our walk with dinner at the XXXX hotel. (I will dig up a group photo from somebody.)
