Chester on a rest day

Thanks to everyone's donations we're now more than half-way to the target! Which works out pretty perfectly as I'm slightly less than half-way through the trip. 450 miles so far, after 8 days of cycling.

Eek- I've got 5 minutes left on this internet terminal in the cafe I'm in! No pressure!

I've never enjoyed walking as much as this morning. I woke up with a smile on my face at the prospect of resting my legs and doing a different range of motion for a change. Doing 8 to 10 hours of cycling a day has many strange effects on the body and mind - the one new one I've found is that I dreamt I was navigating towards sleep. I could see 'sleep' on the map, and was trying to find the best route towards it. After staring at the map on my handlebar bag for hours every day, it's not suprising!

Oh, time is up. Inge and Tabby are coming to visit in Chester today, so it'll be a day of rest and fun.
