Day4 Taunton to Bristol

Here we are, a quarter of the way through! We had such a lovely meal and relax last night in a lovely Inn near Taunton. Today the weather was much better (thanks Angie!) and we set off at a right old pace with only the Somerset levels to contend with. A short day scheduled which was still 40miles but felt almost like a day off. We were welcomed on the roadside at a pub (where else?) by Simon, John, Chris and Roxanne. Felt like celebrities we did. Then after a lunch we headed the 400yrds to our accommodation at Colliters Brook Farm (see last weeks entry). Where we have been joined by Annie and Mudger. They are all outside watching Simon put the bbq on. We are all in various states of relaxation, laundering, showering and hanging on to this internet connection! Can't write much more as its definitely frustrating!. So I will wish you all well and head back to the bbq. #
I have lots of photos to upload and post but the connection is too poor for that. Just know that 90% of them seem to involve Alex answering the call of nature in front of some spectacular views!!

  1. Good to hear the weather has improved - I don't think I can take all the credit! We are keeping track of your route on the giant map in the pub which is actually taller than me! Hope the BBQ spurs you on for the next leg ...

  2. We found this side finally and indeed another perspective on your great trip. We have been keeping up to date through Beth's blog, but will now have two views on 'the ride'. Obviously mixed feelings of jealousy (wish we were there) and comfort (so pleased we're not). Celia and I might make the trip on our Honda one day!
