Mileaters walk - Oh we do like to be beside the seaside!
On a blustery Autumnal morning, 10 Mileaters set off from Lodmoor nature reserve and walked out to Weymouth seafront and walked a little way along the esplanade towards Weymouth and as the tide was going out we then walked along the tide line coming back up in front of the Pavilion. Proceeding around the old harbour up to Nothe gardens.
Along the top of Nothe gardens dodging the squirrels even though one tried to get in Celias bag! We stopped for coffee on the sea wall looking out towards Portland which was visible through the mist. Walking onto to the Fort where unfortunately Celia stepped in something nasty!
We walked back around the harbour and along to the Pavilion and walked back along the tide line where Celia was able to clean off her boots in the wet sandy gravel. No treasure was found. We moved up onto the esplanade and walked along to Weymouth tip and took the scenic path through the nature reserve back to our cars and the Spring head pub for a very good lunch even though the service was very slow.
