Leaving Streatley behind, where we stayed at a youth hostel and had a drink in The Bear the night before, a couple of hills had to be climbed which took us through denser woodlands. They had not featured a lot in the landscape so far. Otherwise large houses dominated the landscape of this affluent area for the last two days.
We were hoping to pass Reading, but we barely crawled into town today. Our vigour seems to steadily decrease each day for the last days, maybe time for a rest?!? It was hard to find somewhere to sleep, and we ended up in a B&B above an off licence run by the same owners.
