Boring stuff people do on their holidays

If it’s possible, i prefer to just make my own way to anywhere that I want to see. Usually works out cheaper and doesn’t take up as much of the day 

 

Assuming you were walking at a pace of 10 minutes per kilometer, a 75km walk would take you 12.5 hours. Now according to yourself you were stopping in multiple pubs on the way there (although I'm not sure why a main road between two cities would be littered with pubs, unless you took the back roads of course) so that would have increased your journey time. Say you stayed an average of 20 minutes in each pub and you called into 5 pubs. That's another 1 hour 40 minutes on to your journey. That's a grand total of 14 hours 10 minutes. Of course once you got there you then had to get back! Did you walk back too? Are you sure you aren't confusing this with a dream?

Did a couple of these when visiting cities on my own when younger. A great way of meeting people, especially women. They were actually decent value!

Was there a few weeks ago

Pity I didn’t bump into you, you could have cracked the Brazil 1970s joke again to me 

A. Worry what randomers on the internet think about them rather than enjoying a hard earned few days off doing what they like.

 

Its good to do a mix of things IMO. A few days sightseeing, a few days lazing round a pool, a day or two at the beach, the odd lie in. The only constant really is having a few pints every day/night.
