Day 32 & 33 Total 76.8 Miles

 10th February 2022.

One month since we started.

We have been watching the Winter Olympics from Beijing. Loved watching the snowboard cross where 4 of them race down a track. Also watched some Ice Figure skating and of course the fabulous curling. Colin had a realisation when he noticed that some of the gold medal winners were born after he retired in 2004!!!!!

So today we managed to walk towards Sainsbury's and a quick call in to Debbie's house to talk to our Grandchildren through the window as they are still locked in and isolating from Covid. Saw their new dog Loki, they now have 3 chihuahuas whose names all begin with the letter 'L' - Lily, Luna and Loki, plus 2 cats. 

Archie's voice is so low now that Pops sang 'I was born under a wandering star' to him, but he had no idea what he was talking about. Alfie now has very long hair and we told him that he looked beautiful and all the girls will be chasing him when he is back out of lock down. Of course little Violet (who is not that little anymore) sent Pops a fabulous birthday card with a pop out cake and candles on and a message 'I didn't know you were this old but you are looking good for 70'. Missing giving them all a cuddle.

From there we went down Half Penny Lane and around back to the village.

Completed 3.7 miles Total 72.8

11th February 2022.

Slight bit of sunshine today but still cold - bob hats and scarves on. Decided to go up to the top reservoir, the road past the holiday park was shut diverting all traffic up the other road. Stopped off near the top white house to see the view and saw these 2 little beauties, one dog has had a hair colour yellow and the other one pink!

Up the road and through the small joining road but all the diverted traffic was making us constantly have to move over onto the grass verge. We went through Greenbank Park and walked all the way round but noticed some signs.

Not too happy about this as it stops us in the future from having a circular walk all the way round.  

Completed 4 miles. Total 76.8 Miles.

We have got to Padstow and across the ferry and are now in Polzeath. 

Next Leg completed on Google map.
