Day 13 - Danby Wiske to Ingleby Cross

Our night at the White Swan over we set off for a gentle 9 mile walk to Ingleby Cross with the Cleveland Hills looking very much in the distant


We set off with 2 of our new Aussie friends who had stayed near us having arranged to meet the rest of the crew a further 2 miles along the road. On meeting the crew it was clear life couldn't get any better!

1. The sun was out again
2. They were still upset about the test match
3. Where they had stayed had no beer!


Todays walk is a mixture of fields and roads and to be honest pretty dull and uninspiring but we had a good bit of banter along the way and the miles flew by. You can just about see the higher ground of the Cleveland Hills ahead in the picture below

 
 
The 'highlight' of the day was getting across the busy A19 without getting killed!
 
 
Like most days our journey ended at a pub in Ingleby Cross, The Blue Bell, where we had a few drinks before seeking our accommodation for the evening
 
 
 
 
 
We are all looking forward to tomorrow, a proper walk with some hills to climb as we meet up with the Cleveland Way and make our way to Clay Bank Top a distance of around 13 miles.
