• Following the carriage route

    Yesterday in England ⋅ ☁️ 1 °C

    Our final full day in the UK and, after scraping the ice off the windscreen, we left Soberton in bright sunshine.

    We had a couple of stops for a cache and a walk, in Clanfield, then Buriton , before stopping for lunch at Wetherspoons in Petersfield.

    Each Wetherspoons has unique carpet inspired by the building or it's location, and this one features cartwheels in reference to Petersfield's position as a resting place on the Portsmouth to London carriage route.

    We arrived at Heathrow late afternoon and dropped off our hire car, having travelled 350km in the week. Taking out the distance from Heathrow to Soberton, that's an average of 40km a day... but we walked an average of 7km a day.

    Overnight in an airport hotel in readiness for our flight to Malta tomorrow.
