Saturday evening we joined Rob, Alan and Tyrone for an Indian meal, all I was interested in  was all the talk about walking ,I got lots of advice on how to prepare for the long distance walking I want to do, and it was great to hear them say ‘ I would have no problems’

Sunday we woke up to a dry but windy day, great for walking along the coast.

16 of us set out along the coastal path towards Cromer, great walking in the wind, makes you feel fresh and alive.After coffee in Cromer we joined the Weavers way  and headed toward Felbrigg, where we did a loop before going into Felbrigg hall and grounds. They say the Library of the hall is haunted by a Ghost

After lunch we set off back going past The Roman Camp near East Runcton before joining the coastal path back to Sheringham.  

For me it was a fabulous week-end I realized I am quite a strong walker,came home full of enthusiasm and had no aches or pains.

Cannot wait for my next walk.

 

The information from my pedometer was…

16.7 miles

34,690 steps

1.804 cals

After arriving in Sheringham in the pouring rain, we woke to a damp but sunny day on the Saturday.

Not many people were about on the Friday evening,with everyone arriving at different times but we had managed to find out about the walks available.

Ellee decided to join me on the longer walk, so off we set at around 9am with 16 other people,for an 18 mile walk.

This is where I know I am getting addicted to walking because I so wish I had a map so I could have followed the route and know just where I walked, usually I am just happy to follow along and chat.  Maybe I need a GPS…maybe I am becoming too much of a geek…

Our walk took us by pretty corner toward Baconsthorpe, where there are remains of a fabulous castle.Then we went towards Bodham and along to Kelling. Where we had afternoon tea in a lovely tea shop ,that had fabulous home made cakes, but no Muffins !!  We then headed towards Kelling heath and the coast. Following the coastal path back into Sheringham was a great way to end the walk.

I chatted to everyone on the way, Rob, Alan and Tyrone had many  interesting stories, In fact Alan had recently walked the Appalachian Trail and did many of the LDWA challenge walks. Which I find very interesting.

The information from my pedometer was…

18.8 mile

39.033 steps
