It's done!
Wobbly knees and all, I've finally reached the north coast of Wales and the Irish Sea, where I walked right into the rising tide at 4PM yesterday afternoon.
Then walked directly into the nearby Offa's Tavern for a celebratory pint(s).
After 15 straight days of walking, 188 miles (plus at least 20 more miles of misadventures in all directions but the correct one), I've completed the Offa's Dyke Path across the length of Wales.
It's been quite a journey. Quite beautiful, but considerably tougher than I imagined. Thank goodness for the fine string of B&Bs and pubs to take the edge off each evening!
I have a full notebook, more than 1GB of digital photos, and a head full of Wales Tales to tell of the people and places along the Offa's Dyke Path through this fantastic land.
On my way home now...
See you soon for a pint at Bleacher's!
