Day 3. 11.69 Miles Carlisle to Walton
Packing up & moving on carrying all our belongings. After another good breakfast we pay our bill & hit the M&S for our packed lunch, Leaving the city behind us we soon find new wall friends a warm sunny morning walking beside the river Eden some times parallel to it sometimes far from it before parting from it as it meanders away from our direction of travel.
Wall mates of the day are three large Australian lads who we keep on passing they are doing a good pace but slower on the uphill sections, We enquire as to how they ended up on the Hadrian's wall walk & its Roman History that they are interested in & form Wallsend they have planed to travel to Germany to the October beer festival followed by a visit to Prague.
We arrive at Walton our stop for the day the village hall is the local café & we meet the Aussie lads here tucking into a cream tea!
Tonight we are staying at https://florriesonthewall.co.uk/ A family run cosy hostel. A comfortable bed, great food & a selection of beers & wine, We pass the evening with a game of Scrabble. We have also ordered a packed lunch so hopefully it will be ok.
