thames path – part 3 somerford keynes to hailstone hill

back we went to Keynes to continue our walk of the Thames Path.
the first thing we did was have a good game of pooh-sticks

then we walked along a lovely wide, smooth, quite shallow stretch of the river

we continued through Ashton Keynes

then we didn’t see the thames much for the rest of our walk as the thames path veers off through some quarries

the walk did rejoin the river just before we ended the day’s stretch

all in all, a very successful trip. we didn’t get too cold, rained on or tired !
