Family Weekend



We had visits from dad and Emily and Mike this weekend so redid a couple of walks that we had done recently.


On Friday we took dad to do the walk at Nanpantan. It was a bit drier than when we did it a couple of weeks ago and we were very lucky that the rain held off. We had a nice walk to Woodhouse Eaves and then after a stop at The Curzon Arms we set off to Beacon hill and then across Buck Hill -about 8 miles round.


On Saturday we walked across Bobs Closs and then over the fields to Swannington and Coleorton, we had fine views of the Swannington windmill. We finally ended up at the New Inn at Pegs Green where we all had a very nice pint of Guinness, (this walk had been at Mikes request). We were lucky again in the weather -it was quite warm and sunny. This was a shorter walk of about 6 miles. It was a very nice weekend.
