Ally’s heading to Cœur Cheval today, with her Sydney chum Penny. Old Paps got to pull Ally’s suitcase along the road, but that left the two girls free to chat … (good old Paps!)
A puffing Penny arrived in the nick of time to catch the train and off they choofed.
DJ and I headed to the abandoned overhead railway that now comprises a lovely garden walk. Exercising chaps (gender neutral) belt to and fro along the path, enjoying the sun and occasional shower along the way. We began on the footpath under the walkway admiring the various workshops and art houses. When these ran out we climbed up to the path and walked along the path. Not having been to the end of the path in this direction, we continued on, stopping along the way for roll for lunch. Delightful!
Continuing along after lunch, we finally came to the end of the path.
Walking back along the path, we assumed that we would get back to familiar territory and continue on home. HOW WRONG WE WERE!
It seems that there is ANOTHER disused overhead walkway that branches off between the end point and the path we remembered. It was yonks before we realised our error. Abandoning plans to walk all the way home, we headed for the Metro in the rain and scurried home.
Here is a snap of Strava to show where we went wrong (as well as where we went right).
Toodles!
