Today's walk was much shorter than yesterday, took us about 6.5 hours, which we were greatful for! We chose the valley route (low, easier route) today to rest our legs and it was well worth it.
Slow gradual ascents with some wonderful views. We walked with Miranda, Richard & Peter who we met the night before at dinner. They were great, calling us "The Athletes" because we are 40 years (25 prob) younger than them! Despite this, they looked to recover much quicker than us!
Thodays theme song was Beat It by Michael Jackson. Guess I was beating the pain out of my legs.
When we were walking into Grasmere a fighter jet hammered through the skies between the mountains. Was epic. For a second there I thought maybe we'd encountered some Tomorrow When the War Began scenario, like we'd gone bush for a while only to return to England at war with Russia or something!
Stayed at the Chestnut Villa where we encountered our 5 female american friends who we keep seeing along the trail!
