Day 66 - WE'VE ARRIVED!!!

After 60 days of walking (plus 6 rest days) and 1044 miles we finally reached John O'Groats at about 3.30 this afternoon. Janet and Kate provided champagne allowing us to celebrate in style. (And I understand there's another bottle for later.)
The weather today has been kind - in fact some of the best weather of the journey.
How do I feel now it's all over? I don't know yet.

  3. Congratulations! :) I met you in Golspie when I was cycling north, and I thought I'd look you up on the internet to see how your final few days went. I'm amazed by what you've managed to do; cyclists do indeed have it easy compared to walkers! :)
