    The journey begins

    27 Temmuz 2022, Yeni Zelanda ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    Slight hiccup this morning when my check In Suitcase broke and so had to make detour to Auckland airport via Briscoe in Whangarei. Lucky I allow lots of time. Haha they checked my oboe for ? Anything stuffed in the bore and my knee set off the metal scanner and I helped them recalibrate it. Gate 6 today- Birmingham via Malaysia and dubai. Thunderbirds are go, Virgil ( I think he works for Emirates since the pandemic)Okumaya devam et

    Burnsall, End of day 1

    29 Temmuz 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    It was raining this morning when I set out so I didn’t get a good photo of Ilkley moore sadly. My legs felt jet lagged today so it was slow going but enjoyable never the less. Photos include Sign posts with no signs, Quaker house,, beautiful stone bridges and aqua duct. It was a great day for penguins as it was wet and very little sun.Okumaya devam et

    Hubberholme Day 2 Dales Way

    30 Temmuz 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    A good day for walking, wet and warm with very brief glimpses of the sun. Lots of dog walkers with their very cute dogs, some very pregnant sheep, happy finches, and ducks. I passed through some quaint villages and some places that had a name but no buildings????. Really tired legs but enjoying the sights but not so much rain would be a very big bonus. Hubberholme is my place of rest tonight and the favourite place of writer J B Priestly who is buried in the church over the road.Okumaya devam et

    Day 3 Hubberholme to Ribblehead

    31 Temmuz 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    What a day! Rain rain and more rain meaning wet wet wet. If it wasn’t heaving down I was stomping through very soggy moorland pastures. 500m elevation gave me some awesome views of pen-y-gent as I was crossing into Cumbria along a Roman road.. I saw a stone circle called a ring cairn that the book says dates about 4000 yr ago to the Bronze Age.
    I also crossed the watershed which means the streams and rivers flow not into the North Sea as earlier rivers but into Irish Sea from now on. I stayed in a wonderful place “shepherds cottage”    Okumaya devam et

    Day Four Ribblehead to Dent

    1 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    What a difference a day makes. Yesterday rain rain rain and today 17km in the sun sun sun. It made for such great walking. I stopped a lot more to look at things, birds, horses, butterflies, sheep, dead sheep 🙀, cows, and ducks seem to be enjoying to good weather. There were times where I got a little lost as the signs were misleading or not there at all (see photo) but my gps map is working really well. I have not yet met anyone doing the walk but my host last night said there is a couple a day ahead of me. I have a couple of blister but nothing too much at the moment.Okumaya devam et

    Day Five Dent to Howgills

    2 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ 🌧 18 °C

    Well today it rained again. I started with dry feet and that lasted 20 min. It was like walking in a creek. I met Geoff from Lancashire and we walked together for about 2 hrs before he sped off. It was a lovely day walking along the river Dee to start and the the river lune. I passed the pepper pot that was built for TB patients to recover. It had the stairs removed and closed after a cow climbed up to the top level and they only got it down with difficulty.
    A couple of women stayed at my accommodation and they were going in the other direction but were doing double stages. Put me to shame.    Okumaya devam et

    Day six Howgills to Burneside

    3 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ 🌧 15 °C

    Penultimate day today 23 km, no sun but no rain so life is good. It started walking along the Lune river and under the lowgill viaduct. It was the up and over the M6.
    I walked for some 20 min with the sounds of motorway noise. So relaxing. It was nice to see the trains going past though.
    From here in it was walking across farm fields which I didn’t really enjoy. Passed a couple of manor houses which were impressive.. Penguins had disappeared because I think he went off down the swollen rivers with the ducks but today he was back as I was not near a river and it wasn’t raining. He did stop to talk to the baby chickens though. One bad blister slowed me down a little. It compeed and paracetamol seemed to do the job.    Okumaya devam et

    Day 7a reflections from the seaside.

    4 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    The BnB that i stayed in is famous for his breakfast pancakes so I indulged in breakfast this morning. Todays landscape was different as I entered the lakes district where as previously I was in the Yorkshire dales . I got to Bowness which is a seaside town where Brits flock to and today was no different . Haha it’s really a lake but it has the feels of the seaside. People everywhere and it was a little overwhelming after such solitude of the past 6 days. Tomorrow I head back to Yorkshire where I started
    to prepare for my first music school at Giggleswick. My tired and blistered feet will be happy not to have to propel me over 20km 32000 steps    Okumaya devam et

    More serious music

    10 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    On a finer note, choir has been rehearsing in the chapel learning Ukraine prayer song, Vaughan Williams Antiphon, and Hans Zimmer Earth. The acoustics are amazing. I want to go back and play my oboe tomorrow it would sound so good..

    Concerts Galore

    12 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    The week was a week of an enormous amount of sight reading. It was great Meeting up and playing music with people that I haven’t seen for 3 years. Today was morning final rehearsals and the afternoon and evening was concerts galore. Each class showcased what they had been doing over the week. Wow what awesome musicians there are. My biggest leap was in improvisation and yes oboes do Jazz and oboes do improvise.
    It will be so sad to say good bye but on the positive one person is coming to NZ and we will meet up all going well and I have offers of activities and accommodation on my return to England. I am so glad that I have my lots of memories to feast off for a long time. Thank you Giggleswick Music4People music school.    Okumaya devam et

    Dartington music

    13 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Change over day today and so after a 6 hour car journey I have arrived at Dartington Estate for Dartington summer music school.
    I am looking forward to playing with some more awesome musicians and making beautiful music.
    I’m relaxing in the Japanese garden to chill after the drive and escape the 31° heat.
    “Blue skies, nothing but blue skies do I see”
    but my heart yellow and brimming over. The pigeons coo-ing, the jackdaws chuppjng (it’s hard to explain their sound), and the tooting from steam train. Life is good.    Okumaya devam et

    Music week 2 Ending

    19 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    I can’t believe my week at Dartington is in its last hours. A Fab week with Lucinda Atkinson that was completely different to last week but with just as much enjoyment and learning. A week of ensemble playing, mindfulness for musicians (and life), masterclass participation, private lessons, and fabulous concerts by the Magnard ensemble.Okumaya devam et

    20 Ağustos 2022, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Final 2 days in the UK is staying in East Sussex. What was supposed to be a 4 hour drive became a 6 hour one. Everyone in holiday mode enjoying the extended English summer. No concerts tonight just soaking in a nice bath, putting my feet up and reading a book. I’m lucky as the Saltmarsh Seahorse room has a bath. Tomorrow I’m of to South-end-on-sea to visit an elderly relative. Henry Solomons. My last task before departing for home on Monday.Okumaya devam et
