Default I went to the peaks yesterday.

It was lovely

I said hello to the cows. I felt sorry for the wee buggas. Flies all around their eye balls, but they appeared quite happy munching on grass. I got very close but then walked away as I thought they might have charged at me!!! They even posed for a picture.

Specifically, I went to the Monsal trail. I didn't do the whole stretch as my thighs were on fire, quite literally. Managed about 10 miles.

The viaduct was stunning with a beautiful river and some houses which I adored!! ...although I'd worry that there'd be a landslide and I would be trapped amongst the rubble.

Fun fact, did you know that million of years a go that the Monsal trail was a tropical lagoon like the Bahamas. Crazy. It use to also be the midlands rail until they made it into part of the national trust

Have you been?
