Ronnie the Reindeer preferred to shelter in the heather rather than getting blown off his feet!

Day 21

Christmas carols and swans aswimming featured on today's walk.

We ended the walk at the Cow Shed for a hot mug of soup and sandwich.

Day 11

Wednesday 11th Dec
A full day in Bridlington walking around the town with a chance to meet some of the RNLI crew at the lifeboat station.
