July 2 post copied from Facebook
Well it was quite a couple days. Too exhausted yesterday to post, had a great nights sleep and we had a wonderful if very long walk today.
We are now in Cocking about a third of the way to Eastbourne.
Yesterday was a bit of a slog. Some steep and slippery ascents due to the muddy trail. Evidently June was one of the rainiest in quite a while. We had some intermittent rain ourselves but we're dressed for it so no problem. At the top of our climbs we were treated to wonderful views. We met some fun folks but more on that later. It was getting late in the day and we still had quite a way to go and were tired and it had started to rain again. We couldn't get our phone to work to call for a lift so we decided to strike out on our own on a road that promised a pub a mile or so away. We figured they could help us out and get us to our B and B. We finally got to the end of the road and what to our wondering eyes should appear but our B and B. We were home!😀
Lovely dinner and to bed early.
