So........today it all starts...
An early rise was needed to rack my tiny mind to see if anything was missing from my incredibly heavy backpack that I would be carrying for the 9 day adventure ahead.
I shut the front door at 9am with that sense of relief of no turning back and that it was to late to do anything else. I rarely get that feeling but when I do I feel released and free. It like the feeling a lot.
A short pedal on my own to collect my partner in crime, Mr J, and then on to the station together to start our long travel day to Lands End. A laughable first mile for us both saw a lost bottle roadside and a near crash at the station. Only 999 miles to go!
An unbearable packed train to London standing in the aisle with bikes, cycle to Paddington, train and arrival at Penzance, taxi to the Lands End hotel and here we are 10 hours later!
The train journey from Paddington took over 5 hours and the woman sitting near us across the way that was earwiging finally gave in after Andrews chat
The weather was very diverse on the journey down but gazing out of the window was a real delight with a More beautiful English countryside to behold and enjoy.
Arrival at Lands End made things very "real" and the undulating and rolling hills on the way in gave us an insight in what we would start with tomorrow. The evening here though tonight was beautiful and sunset made for great pictures
I am sooo excited to hear that alarm tomorrow morning. Let's get this on!
