Jurassic Way, Part 3: Chipping Warden to Hinton-in-the-Hedges, November 2014

Well, a slightly delayed start due to Alan being convinced we were walking in Oxfordshire, then  the local hunt arriving along the road at the start of our walk. Less than a mile into the walk and we had the excitement of passing by old military remains, including an air raid shelter. Half way up the hill on the other side and we noticed the hunt now coming round the side of the woods that we had just left so we stayed to watch the spectacle unfold beneath us, encouraging a hare to run fast to get to the next field ... he did.

Several wobbly stiles later, we came to a little wooden bridge and found our first ever Official Geo-cache. I left a (clean!) tissue in a plastic bag...the best thing to hand, but left the party blower and toy car behind. A refreshing lunch, on the damp benches in Hinton, gave us enough energy to walk,back to the pub, The Griffin, in Chipping Warden. It would have been very easy to have a little siesta there!

A very enjoyable walk of about 9 miles, with 9 walkers., and I didn't go wrong,once. Some photos may follow when I have acquired some from Fergus as I forgot my camera!
