The Coast to Coast Walk with Simon and Clare---The Final Part.

Congratulations to Simon and Clare and well done to them, have been following blogs and it looked like a great adventure. Great pics. :o)))

How wonderful Pp Simon and Clare have done so well, what fantastic photo's you have put on they are a dream, thank you, love the photo of the two of them with their well deserved beer, brought a tear to my eyes when I saw The End on the sign behind them, many congratulations to them both, and so pleased the two of you enjoyed your couple of days with them,

Well done to the walkers... stunning scenery :o)

Agree with Yorkshire. Really moving to watch. Well done to both of them. :o))

Well done Simon and Clare, I have enjoyed this walk through all your lovely pictures and blog's .

Thanks Littlelegs,Yorkshire, Terra, Linda and Mavis, so pleased you have enjoyed this walk and have passed the endurance test, Yes its been a truly moving experience for us and I will pass on your comments to Simon and Clare;0))

The photographs are wonderful, pp. It was quite an undertaking and it's been captured so well...I'm so glad you shared Simon and Clare's walk with us.

I can't imagine the difficulty of the cello players carrying their instruments on their backs all those miles. Bet the concerts were well received. Our son plays cello and it's quite a big instrument to carry from the car to a venue, never mind over all those miles. I admire their stamina.

I can almost smell the lush vegetation and the clear country air as I view the photos. Thank you.

Thanks so much for your comments Whiston if you would like to find out more abot the Extreme Cello's just type in the name on google its well worth a visit the venues and amounts of money raised is amazing ;0)

Thank you for the link pp. I've had a quick look and will return to the site later. Sent the link to our son as well as it would interest him. He moved back to Canada (his birthplace) last September and couldn't afford to take his cello with him so it's sitting in our dining room until he comes home to claim it!

The group have raised a significant amount with very original ideas/venues.

Fantastic achievement well done to the pair of them. I cannot imagine ever of having the stamina to have done that walk it is truly a great achievement. Well done, thanks for posting the beautiful pictures.

congrats simon and clair, well done to you both, beautifull places you have walked, stunning views you have seen and wonderfull people along the way, so enjoyed all the blogs ;o)))

Oh what energy they have! Did I really see 92 miles on the sign behind them?
Fab. blog and well done what a walk! I would love to have done it with u but I don't think I'd have the energy. It would have made a lovely Tv program.
love pic too.

They must have enjoyed every step of the way with those fantastic views. I haven't seen the preceding blogs because I haven't been on for a while. I'll be taking a look at them soon to catch up.

It's been a fabulous jouney Carole , we have so enjoyed it thank you for sharing it with us .... as soon as I shouted to my hubby " The last past of the long distance walk is on " he came rushing in here to read it ..LOL... you can make him move quicker than I can :o) .. congratulations and well done to Simon and Clare and everybody for their parts in it ... we will be looking forward to their next great adventure ..........

Thanks for all your interest and comments
Olive It did take lots of stamina and at times great determination to continue, but the rewards were greater than the pain.

Sandra pleased you have enjoyed it and they have made many new friends along the way.

Angieindgar It was actually 192 miles over the 12 days walking, there are three blogs in all covering the whole walk if you are interested, thanks for joining us.

Hywel nice to see you back,and pleased you enjoyed this blog, the first one has some wonderful scenery through the beautiful lake district.

Wow what a journey, I feel exhausted too!! Amazing photos, love the steam train at Grosmont our favourite line and those views to die for. Well done folks.

Congrats to both of them, thanks Pansy for sharing with us, I`ve enjoyed seeing the beautiful scenery on their travels......

congratulations on completing a truely beautiful walk, I've enjoyed travelling with them...I don't even feel tired LOL

Thanks Amy, didnt see you sneak in there, Im pleased to hear that Tony was motivated by the journey, maybe I should put his name down for the Invincible Pin, tell him not to worry there are safety harnesses available lol will pass on your congrats to Simon and Clare;0)

Thanks GrandM pleased you enjoyed the walk, I love the Steam Trains too, there is one that passes our house every Friday on its way to Scarborough, we intend to take a trip on it next year;0)

Thanks Lincslass and Grindle pleased you enjoyed the scenery and will pass on your Congrats, its strange I dont feel tired either, just envious!

Wonderful ending Carole they both seemed to really enjoy that ale lol. Lovely scenery and photos congratulations to them both and thank them for sharing such a wonderful trek. Loved the waterfall and pachwork fields, what gorgeous place Robinhood bay and the scence of the sea with cliffs. I wish them luck for their next venture hope they keep safe.

Thanks Sixpence It was a wonderful couple of days, Robin Hoods Bay is picturesque and fascinating with its quaint street and houses, very steep though, but steeped in history, smugglers , rum etc but a great atmosphere full of happy emotions, and merry making as the walkers hobble in after their marathon walks.

Sounds wonderful Carole perhaps one day I might see for myself, I bet a nice warm bowl of salted water is awaiting those hobble walkers to rest their weary feet.

Hope you can do 6d you would fall in love all over again lol

Lol Carole x

I asked Tony if he would like his name putting down for the Inv. Pin .Carole , he thought I was serious ..... when he saw the photo of it he said " They must be mad " LOL......

I agree lol

Wonderful series PP and highlights what a great acheivement for Simon and Clare to complete.That last stretch out of Grosmont is almost cruel after so many miles that climb up is hard enough but suppose the final push gets you up it.When you drive up you end up staring at sky through your windscreen its that steep ..

Thank you again for sharing this .

Lol BB,So pleased you enjoyed the challenge, I have so enjoyed writing the blog as it has really brought home what a fantastic experience and achievement it has been;0)))

Interesting blog. It must have taken you nearly as long to upload the photos as to do the walk! :)

You are right there, but it has made me appreciate the wonderful countryside we have and the stamina needed to complete the walk;0))

Just as I would be if I were on the walk, I am lagging behind just reading your lovely blogs. What a tremendous achievement - you must be so proud of them. Please pass on my congratulations.

Thanks Gee, it was a great achievement and I will pass on your congrats, they are both at the Lakes climbing again this weekend really hooked on it ;0)

fantastic and very well done
that river esk and the waterfall look very beautiful

Thanks Sticki

:o))
