Old Ridgeway between England and Wales

---

We'd been planning a walk along the Kerry Ridgeway - an ancient route - for a while. And today was the day. It was certainly autumnal, and the wind up there took our breath away to start with. But we had a lovely walk, and now plan to go back and walk another part. I think its about 18 miles in all. And the views are incredible, looking to Wales one way and England the other.

turned out to be a weather vane in the middle of a field, decorated with a running fox.

signing the log
did I mention there are caches up here?

and a celtic cross
to mark the finding of a body up here years ago. Was it natural or foul play?

and in the middle of nowhere
we found a bowl of chocolate pudding!

are you still awake?
if so - here's a photo of Kathy, Jason and Anita visiting Mum in hospital. All the way from NZ. They had others to see as well!
