• Day 18 Street to Cheddar

    June 6 in England ⋅ 🌬 14 °C

    Today started well. We had a very nice breakfast at Hygge Somerset. Toast, eggs, coffee, set us up for our days walking. We set off just after 7am and first headed for Glastonbury. The weather was really clear and we got great views from Glastonbury Tor. It was quite windy and I nearly got blown away. But we made it down back into Glastonbury and had a coffee and a walk round the shops. It was very nice. Then we set off for Cheddar. It was easy walking as this area is quite flat, but the rain started and it went on and on and on. When we reached Wedmore ( a couple of hours walk from our camp) we saw a pub and decided it was a great place for a break. It was so nice to get out of the rain. Then we were off again ( in the rain) to Cheddar. We got to the site just after 5pm, luckily tonight we are in a pod, so no trying to pitch the tent in the rain.
    PS John says it was tough today, second day on the run over 30km. It is flattish, but rainy conditions, country lanes, poorly maintained, overgrown and blocked paths. Views from Glastonbury were great though.
