Hi, folks. I’m getting the website ready for an upcoming trip to England. Sharon and I fly to London on Oct. 7. We’ll immediately take a train to Newcastle and spend two nights there. On Oct. 10, we set off for eight days’ hiking along Hadrian’s Wall Path. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site along a wall built in 122 AD to mark the northwestern border of the Roman Empire.

At the end, we will rent a car and drive to the Lake District for three days of touring and hiking. As usual, we’ll be posting updates on our travels. We look forward to it and hope you’ll follow along.
