Welcome Back to the Sunshine Coast, Tuesday 25th May 202110 walkers, 14 miles - leader Ron Williamson
A walk to celebrate the reopening of coffee shops and hostelries revisiting old favourites.
A good excuse for an easy stroll combined with a trip to the seaside. A late start combined with long lunch and coffee stops left little time for strolling, but walk we must.
Somehow, we managed 14 miles across field and along the seashore, whilst as promised "The Sun" appeared all be it with a short blast from its supporting act "Cumulus Cloud and the Raindrops". No problems today as we trod familiar ground, but the vegetation is certainly flourishing thanks to the recent rain, necessitating a diversion from the right of way and over a barbed wire fence.
