I arrived home last night, after a 4.5 hour journey, from a week’s booking in Salisbury. As much as what I really enjoyed exploring the city, and learning more of the history and her green spaces, it was wonderful to be back home.

You cannot underestimate the sheer joy of coming ‘home’ to your own place. It may not be much, but it’s got my stuff in it, and I’m home.

After I’d dropped my bags off, I grabbed my walking poles and immediately set off for a sunset walk to the harbour

and then along the lower promenade

before climbing up to the clifftop and a walk to Pegwell Bay.

It was quite dark already by the time I reached the hotel, so I stopped there for a few photos and then walked back along the clifftop.

A bit of fun with the moon and the hands and molecules sculpture

One lone boat still has its Christmas lights on

A magical walk with no pressure to get back within 2 hours, and 9.9 kms added to my 2021 Conqueror virtual challenge.

I’m going to start the Ring Road Iceland virtual challenge on Monday 1st March. I’m so looking forward to the postcards, should be amazing. My daughter and I had a fantastic 4 day trip to Iceland in 2014, so I’m really keen to see the information that comes with the postcards.
