A WET walk on Dartmoor

Well if you haven't heard on the news or been outside for a while, you might have noticed that its been a TAD wet of late! Well this didn't seem to deter Naomi insisting upon us going for a walk this weekend! However I sneakily decided this would be a good excuse to scope out some new routs to cycle on.

Well the start of the walk was a sign of things to come with us discovering Paul to be sitting in a pool of water... great!



So clearly I had to do the manly thing of walking out into the deep pool and drive Paul to a drier spot, I surprisingly did this without actually getting wet socks! We then drove out to the Moors successfully without driving into the back of anyone after Paul's brakes failed after the wetness, luckily they sorted themselves out after a quick spin!

We.... I'd decided we'd go for a little walk around this spot here on Dartmoor:



The walk started off with a rather amusing comment from Naomi of (not a direct quote) "You don't need those Waterproof trousers".... oooh how wrong she was! The heaven's emptied I stayed bone dry Naomi's top half stayed dry... this said rain ran off onto her trousers and she got soaked... mehehehe! We walked up to one of the tours here was the view:



The view behind wasn't to bad either ;-)



The walk back to the car was rather amusing with the decision of the boring walk along the road or the walk down the vally over moor land.... for some odd reason we decided to walk down the vally.... vally's being known for the small bit of water flowing down the middle... which wasn't tooo small! Lets just say our feet got rather wet!

Well that is all for now.... thanks for reading!

PS Snuffles... for all those who were at our wedding is doing just fine living with us in our flat:
