NEW WALK

Our Parkinson Walk yesterday was a new walk.  The Council is putting in a shared cycle/walkway alongside the railway line from the city centre to the suburb of Kamo (where I used to live). when finished it will be 6.5 kms long.

The first part of it has just opened so we went to the Regent and walked into the city and back.  It was a very pleasant walk followed by delicious coffee at a cafe we hadn't visited before.






The forecast had been for rain but, once again, it held off.  Last night there was a storm that hit the country, that missed us as well but caused damage further south.

  3. 6.5 kms is just about the right distance for a pleasant walk; I think Bok would agree.

    1. Yes, when it is finished 13 kms return. At present it is just a short walk but very pleasant.

  7. That looks like a perfect (along with the sunshine) walk. I love walking
    as it is good for my heart and head, but I avoid hills. Do you wear a Fitbit when you go on these walks?
