The Wednesday Walk 9th May 2018




The Plan
A Swanage walk

Who Turned Up
Sue, Trisha, Ros, Beatrice and Tony H, Diane and Tony R, David

The Walk
The weather was a bit cooler than the past few days but that proved to be a positive factor. Had we been walking in the heat we experienced over the weekend we would have melted. We took the bus from Poole – one walker getting on at the terminus and the others at Upton – and enjoyed a scenic drive through the Dorset countryside. In Swanage we walked along  the shore and then ambled up to the Pines Hotel in hopes of having lunch there. Sadly, they were full with a conference, so we ambled back down to the town and found a suitable pub. We then walked out to Peveril Point and back to the railway station in good time for the bus home. An enjoyable walk in ideal conditions.

The Pub
The White Swan. A basic but comfortable pub. They had no pies but we all had a decent meal anyway.

Next Week
To be decided.
