Wainwright describes a variety of routes from Littlebeck to the ultimate destination of Robin Hood's Bay, in part I think to sort the true walkers from the not so true.
From Littlebeck along the falling Foss Nature Trail and across Sneaton Low Moor ('swampy in places but who cares about wet feet when Robin Hood's Bay is so near?) to the village of Hawkser leaving just 2.5 miles to go. Wainwright says 'excitement is now at fever pitch' as the cliff path is reached and the final descent into RHB.
Wainwright finishes saying 'with head held high, the Coast to Coast walker completes the journey from one side of England to the other'
Our three have all done that safely and after all the organisation, navigation and miles walked they finally managed to locate the Bay Hotel at the entrance to the beach where at lunch time Fergus was awarded his susstificate to prove he done it.
So what next?
Well after a well earned drink and lunch Fergus and his hoomans were hoping to meet up with a young Welshie named Ted who, with his hooman Mum, was very keen to share a word or two on the beach.
I think the plan for tomorrow will be something like stay in bed 'til late then drive home to collect the two tails Max and Inca. For me, I have to take my Wainwright book back to the library now I have read it from cover to cover!
