It’s been another nice day, but the weather is going to turn for the weekend so we went out for some serious walking (read as good test for my new trainers).
We are very well placed here, not only for towns and shopping or rivers for puttering up and down on, but for tourist attractions, The Malvern Hills and fantastic scenic views.
Hubby has kindly compiled this panoramic view taken from Jubilee Hill on our ‘hike’ this afternoon, which he is paying for BIG TIME in the pain stakes having really pushed himself (aka overdone it).
I couldn’t tell you how high up we were but we were glad there were benches every 200 yards. I do not travel uphill very well, but going down seems to be much easier!
Bless him, Hubby has just looked it up and informs me it was 300 meters (981 feet give or take an inch).
The dog was in her element as it’s been such a long time since she was able to roam and explore like this. She met up with lots of other dogs and got tarty with most of them (she’s just finishing her season) but generally had a good time and is, like us, pretty exhausted. Guess we’ll all sleep well tonight.
Hubs took this pic of me on the sly:
I love the Malvern Hills area. Used to visit an Aunt in Fladbury and went into Pershore periodically. A really lovely area. π π π π
It is beautiful and well worth the pant! We didn’t make it right to the top, that was asking too much of both of us yesterday.
Lovely views! Uphill is a struggle, you’re right. Glad Maggie got a good run, and Yes, your shoes are awesome! Hope they were comfy π
No blisters or sore toes. Brilliant!
Perfect! And may I add you were looking pretty fit in the photo too. Great shot of you and Maggie π
Thanks!
