The Sea Ahead

What would you do if you suddenly had all the time in the world? For Shally Hunt and her husband Richard, one week at home was enough before they set off on a 2,300-mile walk from Scotland to Nice, carrying their simple needs on their backs. The couple camped wild in some of the loneliest places in Scotland, encountering searing heat in Lorraine and the Vosges and wild thunder storms in the High Alps. Along the way they met some fascinating characters, like the medium with a penchant for local liqueurs and the man who climbed the Tour des Alps Maritimes on one leg. Shally and Richard reached Nice with their sense of humour and marriage still intact - a remarkable achievement, for their journey was no ordinary walk.
