July on the Thames Path

The East End Girls are still on the Thames and
now nearer to Oxford that London, we'll actually walk into Oxford on this months walk on Aug 22nd. If anyone is interested, we're up for a 12 mile walk, just email heather@walkerscoach.com




Here are some photos from the latest walk when we walked from Cholsey to Culham, a walk of 14 miles. Unfortunately there was an additional mile at the start to get to the path and 1.5 miles to the station at the other end) The walk happened on a very hot day and as you'll see from some of the photos, there were stretches with little shade.




How about that for a boat house? If you can beat that, let me know, photographic proof please.

The fields were alive with butterflies and some plants like this one were absolutely covered.



















Photos above taken at Day's Lock Weir.


Lessons to be learnt for all of us regarding how much water to drink and the need to wear hats, something it's good to be reminded off from time to time as we can all become a little complacent.
It was another great walk, even with the unexpected 'bog' at the end - well at least it cooled our feet!
