We've decided to get the train to Birmingham this evening to get an early start tomorrow.

Rest day & planning
September 27, 2024 in England ⋅ 🌬 9 °C
After a day of flooded and collapsing towpaths we reminded ourselves that we had already walked the equivalent of two marathons in two days and that the original objective of the trip was an "enjoyable" walk along the canal into London.

So, we took the hard decision to take advantage of our support driver (Benji in the van) and have a rest day to regroup and skip to the last leg of the trip.

Tomorrow we will continue from somewhere closer to London.Read more
