Lake Country, England: Epilogue

EpiloguePresently we dwell at the Oakhill Apartments, Edinburg, Scotland. It has been a few days hence we finished our walk across England. After a grand adventure like this, what is left tucked away in the cubby hole of remembrance. Certainly, and foremost are the very pleasant folks who run the B&Bs. No matter how challenging the day's walk, without exception, we looked forward to their warm and hospitable reception. No matter whom we asked for directions when pondering where we were, the responses were with a cheerful smile. Those on the trail with us offered their support and the shared stories seemed to shorten the walking time. Through out these pages their pictures and names will return cherished memories. What have we done since the finish at Robin Hood's? The Goslings of Bolton, Sue and George, took over our entertainment providing us with lodging; and, endless hours behind the wheel taking us to places they thought we would enjoy, BlackPool, The walled city of Chester, Gretna Green, it's history the most unique we have ever read. Now in Edinburgh, we spent yesterday walking to and exploring the Royal Gardens after taking the city tour on the Hop on Hop off red bus. Today we plan to walk to and explore, The Castle and the National Gallery, previewing stores along the way. The delight of sharing with Sue and George will end today. After an early dinner they will drive back to Bolton leaving us one more day in Edinburgh. George met us two times along the walk and tried a third, being off course, he met us later at our B&B. We are indebted to Sue and George. If they come our way in the future we will repay them. To contact either Joan or Stu email joanliz@me.com or stuwmson@me.com
