Lesley & Derek walk Hadrian's Wall Day 5

 Day 5. 9.54 Miles. Greenhead to Vindolanda (Bardon Mill)

After an okay night in the hostel we have breakfast in the hotel great Porridge & fruit compote. we head out, The rain has passed a bright sunny day & having visited the roman museum we had bought a joint ticket to Vindolanda a privately owned roman collection with over 5000 roman shoes excavated from the land, its steep & we are out on our own we don't see any other walkers for several hours. The highlight of the morning's walk was rescuing a sheep that had rolled onto it's back & was stuck, Thankyou Mr MW for teaching me the rescue procedure when we were walking the SWCP together.
