Great walk around Whalley

That was sure a great walk around Whalley in Lancashire. Just funny to think, that if, I had not moved to Scotland when I was, very, very young. That’s the area, I would have growing up in! Since I was born in Chorley and use to live in Leyland…

Anyway back to the walk, I can’t get over just how nice Whalley is! So much going on, for a small village!

The walk was just over 6 miles! You can check out the route we took over at www.strava.com/activities/1539712837
