UK: Wainwright Day 10 – Richmond to Osmotherley
Our Longest Day
Twenty-seven miles, our longest but flattest day, across the Vale of Mowbray between the Pennine foothills and the Yorkshire Moors.
Leaving Swaledale
This was our last sight of the deep valley, just east of Richmond, as the Swale runs east across flatter land. By now the weather has turned warmer and sunnier as leave the rainy Cumbrian climate behind.
Honor Boxes
At intervals along the Wainwright, cooler chests like this are left running on farms we cross, serving ice cream and cold sodas.
Osmotherley
My B & B in this small town was the home of a beekeeper. I enjoyed three different kinds of homey for breakfast the next morning..
