With the sound of a complaining Pixie!!
OMG!! Duck is a BITCH!!! Let me explain my weekend.
Saturday I drove down to Dorset with the rain clouds above me all the way! When it stopped raining the traffic jams started! I got there about 2.30 I guess! Then that afternoon we took the dogs out for a walk.
Suzy went to Win Green the highest point in Dorset and showed us Madonna's house (well the roof!) and the grass! Bless her! Lovely terrier who thought it was great to sit on my lap watching out the window! She also took us to Wardour Castle which is where they filmed part of "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves". So very nice!
Scamp, the nutty black lab, then took us round the villiage for a stroll! Between the 2 we did about 2-3hrs walking
Sunday - Bacon and Egg sarnie! Heaven! This was then followed by almost 13hrs of walking! Duck took me up and down loads of hills, across 2 wild life reserves and a couple of roads. At 10m we started up an Ox Drove that took us up and down and up again all the way to the top of Win Green. This took 2.5m! By this time Pixie legs and lungs had declared "we do not do hills!"
We did intend to walk to Wardour Castle but guess what ... yes we got lost!!! But hey the total distance was about 28m maybe more given the GPS lost signal under the trees! We were both very tired by the end of the day! The thought of another 12hrs was mad!! The feet went from tired at 12hrs to OUCH at 12 1/2hrs! I had 2 blisters and my heel was sore but Duck was fine!
Next day we were walking the south coastal path and walked down to Swanage. It was a short 3 maybe 4 hrs of pottering. No GPS no timing and lots of watching the views! We even went paddling in the sea then ate ice-cream!!
A Great Weekend!
