Wye to Canterbury

Wye to Canterbury

Via Crundale


June 14th 2008. Today i set off to wye by bus for an 11 mile walk back to Canterbury. I caught the 7:10 am Bus and bought a trusty Explorer ticket (£5). I arrived at my starting point at 8:22 Excited an ready to go.


The weather was good, a mixture of blue sky and fluffy Clouds (Some Grey). The temp was low for the time of year 16'c , but ideal for walking.



This is how Footpaths should be kept, Nice clear and obvious.



I Had chance to do some Macro Photography.

Wingham To Canterbury




Wingham to Canterbury Walk


Via Fordwich


Today was hot and sunny and i decided to do a evening walk from Wingham to canterbury. I chose the evening as i new it would be cooler, if i tried this walk during the middle of the day, i would have fried.

The fields were full of Rapeseed again, a lovely carpet of yellow and in the eveing sun glowed almost like gold.

The walk was fairly easy, not any real hills to climb and well sign posted, which is always a bonus.


I had to negotiate a small stream as i went through Ickham but stepping stones were provided.



I also past a wonderful dispay of Wisteria cling to the front of a house, Magic.




The evening sun also gave some wonderful effects in the wooded sections.
In all it was a really nice walk and did not tire me out to much, i will do this walk again in the future, hopefully with my wife Michelle.

Lyminge and Etchinghill

Lyminge And Etchinghill

My walk today was going to be a 10 mile round trip from Lyminge and back. I have been having a few problems with muscle cramps in my thighs recently (don't know why), and today the cramps decided to flare up and cut my walk short, I ended up only doing 7.14 miles and stopped at Echinghill to catch the bus home. Once again the weather was great, although a little cool at times. The walk took me over 4 hours to complete due to the many stops i had to make to ease the cramps. I might have stop my walking for a bit until i find out what is causing the Cramps.
