• Day 6 - to Kirkby Stephen

    July 2, 2017 in England ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    Day 6... After taping up ankles & knees, covering blisters... left the Kings Arm Hotel and walked 34 km.
    Past a 6000 year old stone circle, Robin Hood's grave (apparently), through the pretty township of Orton, through farms, following the never ending stone walls, along streams, over bridges & under bridges.

    We arrived at Kirkby Stephen later than planned, to find all the pubs had finished cooking for the night. We saw plenty of road kill, but fortunately we also found a Chinese restaurant that served hot chips.

    Due to a pressure issue in his heel, Ethan did the whole day in his explorer socks only... Champ
