To Jedburgh
13. august 2019, Skottland ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
We had a great breakfast with waffles and bacon as the special. We started our walk by leaving Melrose via the Abbey and heading up to the Eildon Hills. We decided to take a little side trip up top of Eildon Mid Hill where there were great views all around. Then we continued on. The trail was a mix today of every condition, including a lot of mud and wet puddles. We got to St Boswell’s and had lunch there at a bookshop with a café which was really nice. Then we carried on to Harestanes. We walked for a long time down a rough path over an old Roman road called Dere Street. It runs straight as an arrow for 8 km or so. There we called for a taxi to take us to our Inn in Jedburgh (6 km off the track). We had dinner at Carter’s Retreat under the Jedburgh Abbey ruins. Tomorrow is a longer day of about 30 km.Les mer

To Melrose
12. august 2019, Skottland ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
We left Robin Hood’s Bay this morning in the rain and caught the bus and then train and then bus again to Melrose in the border country of Scotland. The train from York to Berwick-on-Tweed was crowded and Val had to sit with her bag in front of her and her legs in the aisle. We got in just before 5 pm, which was enough time for Val to check out the fabric store in Melrose before we checked into our B&B. We then wandered to the King’s Arms and had drinks while it poured rain outside. When we got back to our room, Claudia and Christina had arrived by bus. They had a long day traveling from Nuremberg. We all headed back to the King’s Arms and had dinner and drinks. Now we’re getting ready to start our hike tomorrow.Les mer

Day Off in Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby
11. august 2019, England ⋅ 🌧 18 °C
We have been pretty lazy today but we needed the rest. So we took a planned day off and spent it wandering around Robin Hood’s Bay and Whitby. We didn’t walk to far to save our feet. We walked down to the beach at Robin Hood’s Bay, to finish the Coast to Coast properly. we took a bus to Whitby, which was very busy with a regatta happening and loads of tourists in town. Tomorrow we head to Scarborough by bus and then Berwick Upon Tweed by train and then Melrose by bus, to start our next hike - St Cuthbert’s Way. Apparently Scotland is having its wettest August on record with major flooding to the west and road and train closures this past weekend; so we’re very fortunate we were able to do the Coast to Coast with only rain, wind and wet feet to worry about. We’ll pray to St. Cuthbert for the next hike.Les mer

Finish of the Coast to Coast Walk
10. august 2019, England ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We had another long day of 31 km. We made it to the end at Robin Hood’s Bay around 5 pm. It was very windy all day. We didn’t have any rain though, until the last ten minutes into Robin Hood’s Bay when the sky opened up and it poured. We arrived at the B&B (the Villa) soaking wet and the owner dried us off with a towel with us still wearing our jackets. The Coast To Coast Trail today was a little frustrating as it seemed to turn south then north then south again even though the ocean is east. It climbed and then descended only to climb up again. It took a long time to get to the ocean even though we saw it three days ago. We haven’t yet been down to the beach and the official trail-end due to the bad weather, but we have the day off tomorrow and will do so then.Les mer

To Glaisdale
9. august 2019, England ⋅ 🌧 13 °C
We started out today from the Buck Inn in Chap Gate. The walk started as a slog uphill but then it was pretty level after that. The weather was awful. It was driving rain with probably 60 km winds gusting to 80 km or so. Visibility was also bad as the mist was at our elevation. After a long trudge of 4 hours we arrived at the Lion Inn which is located on a road that cuts through the moor. It was great to stop and have lunch and take the wet stuff off. After lunch we set out again. The mist was still bad but the rain stopped and then it began to brighten. We had sun and warmth for the last few hours into Glaisdale where we are staying at the Red House Farm. Tonight we went for dinner with Andre and Ruth who are also traveling the Coast to Coast and staying at the Red House Farm. We got a cab to the local pub and back as it is a 20 min walk one way. It was a long 30 km today and our feet are sore from all the wet weather. Tomorrow is 31 km and is supposed to be wet again. It’s our last day on he Coast to Coast tomorrow.Les mer
