On Wednesday the 29th, Lydia, Mark and eight young people completed the fourth in our series of walks for Ibba Girls’ School, South Sudan.
We started at Greystones Nature Reserve, Bourton-on-the-Water, then marched down the hill where we checked out an iron-age replica house, which is built on a real iron-age site.
We continued through some fields, playing walk bingo along the way, making our way into Wyck Rissington. From there, we went up another hill and then down past a farm where we saw some cows, a bull, some sheep, goats and a billy goat!. Shortly afterwards we arrived in Little Rissington where we stopped for lunch. We came out of Little Rissington, down the hill, through arable land and on towards New Bridge where we took the opportunity to cool off by going for a paddle.
We then headed back towards Bourton, following a path behind Birdland in Bourton-on-the-water (where we saw some bright orange flamingos!). Finally we made our way into the town centre where we enjoyed an ice cream on the green. It was 11.7km in total!
