Another late start this morning, since we only had nine miles to go.  Another big climb out of the overnight town, across a pass, then down a beautiful river valley to our farm B&B.  We got situated, then walked into town for ale, wine, and dinner.  We had a chance to write a few postcards for grandchildren, then were joined by an Australian couple that we had seen off and on for the last few days.
We've had sticky toffee pudding every day so far, and even had it twice yesterday!  We have walked 45 miles so far.  Some sore toes, a sore ankle and some touchy knees, but mostly OK.
