    Hadrian's Wall

    May 28, 2017 in England ⋅ ⛅ 66 °F

    We drove to a car park at Steel Rig to see and walk along the wall. But the parking lot was full! So I stopped the car on the road, Heather jumped out and got took a picture of the wall, and hopped back back into the car. That is the picture of rocks covered with grass.

    Then we drove 2 miles further down the road and took another road that crossed the wall. No car park there, but no cars either. We parked on the side of the road and went to look at the wall. That is the picture with Gordon and what is clearly a wall.

    There were plenty of British around. They were walking along the wall with their walking sticks and packs. It seems that walking is the greatest British pastime. I think that when civilization breaks down the British will do just fine. They will just get out their packs and their walking sticks and walk out of the city. Americans will hop into their cars and die of hunger while waiting for the traffic jam to clear.
