Day 6 - Great Kimble to Aldbury

Ah, back to an "easy" day! Only 14.2 miles - initially coninuing through the pleasant parkland, then passing Chequers, the PM's country pad. After the monument on Coombe Hill we dropped into the delightful town of Wendover.
The afternoon took us through Tring Parkand Tring Station. Towards the end of the day we caught our first sight of our ultimate goal - Ivinghoe Beacon.
