Lymm Dam Walk 4 August 2009

In very humid conditions we explored the Bridgewater Canal, had great views of Manchester silhouetted against an orange sky, and completed a circuit of Lymm Dam. Thanks to one of the footpaths being closed for repair, we had to make a bit of a detour and the GPS devices on the walk confimed that the walk had been 4.87 rather than the promised 4 miles. However, the conversion of a sports field into a housing estate did not succeed in throwing us off route! We arrived back in Lymm just as the light was failing very much in need of refreshment. This we enjoyed in a beer garden in the village centre, whilst being amazed at all the things modern mobile phones can do.
