Anticlimactic. After the last few days, today was anticlimactic. The walk was mostly flat and was very pleasant but didn't give us the vistas of the previous two days. It was also somewhat shorter than we expected as we arrived in Carlisle at noon and the check in time at the B&B was 3 pm. There were no sections of the wall to see altho we could see where the wall had been and could see the Roman ditches. Carlisle was much nicer and larger than the guidebook suggested making it a pleasant surprise. There is one oddity that I can't understand and it is the early closing time restaurant; some closed as early as 4 pm. We have been to an ATM to top up our cash and have bus schedules for Bowness on Solway and Keswick.
