WALKING THE SWCP

Welcome to my blog documenting our walk along the South West Coastal Path. This is my first ever long distance walk.  I'm a 51 year old Mum with 3 grown up sons. The dog I'm walking with is a recently adopted, 10 year old, German Shepherd called Pegasus.  This year I'm planning on walking for 1-2 weeks.  I've a skeleton plan of places I might camp and a map, beyond that nothing is planned!  I'm not even confident we will last!  One day at a time!
