We have not managed the Boxing Day bash for a few years, due to snow and ice. So, it was lovely to revive the tradition. Four of us set off from Hoole down the Greenway, picking up Jo on the way. We use a very straightforward route direct to the Railway Bridge where it croses the Dee, where we stopped for a photo and to soak up some of the warm but watery sun.

Waves up the river |
We then head back up the riverside path to Chester. We had sun, but it was also very windy. however, we were fortunate to not be plagued by too much of a headwind, although we had a wonderful tailwind on the final approach into Chester - also causing huge waves along the river!
Blue Moon Cafe |
Our ways parted by the Old Dee Bridge, but the ladies took the opportunity for a final coffee stop at the Blue Moon Cafe, before heading home to get the families up and moving!
18 miles.
