I can testify that Claude did it. She was not exhausted and glad to be up there. I was there too and could admire
the beautiful view. Travelling in the North of England was really a very enjoyable trip.

Good for you! Reads like your getting yourself in good shape. Last time I climbed anything of
great height was in my youth. I had no trouble going up the fire tower, the view was fantastic,
but coming down the open-in-the-back steps was a bit much. I finally sat down and scooted from
step to step until I got much closer to the ground.

That is IMPRESSIVE! And that goes for the view as well as your acheivement. Even in the days when i was relatively fit I couldn’t climb up towers – especially if it was a spiral staircase.
I bet you are really pleased with the results of your fitness campaign. Very well done!!

That’s great, Claude. It looks like you were having good weather too. Next think you know you’ll be climbing up the stairs to the top of the Eiffel Tower!

@ Mrs K. yes, you had mentioned the knocker but not the Tower, and climbing was well worth it!
@ Kenju and Martie, yes it was great. Thanks
@ Millie, yes, it’s been a busy summer, busier than usual, but quite enjoyable!
@ Kay, I’m always glad to leave and always glad to be back
@ Naomi, thanks, you are as good an elderexerciser as I am! (just made up another word!)
@ Claudia, yes, it was quite higher than these other two towers. I didn’t get dizzy though, it felt very safe, up there.
I hope you are still considering ElderExercise, September is coming

Wonderful view! You must have been higher than the tops of those two towers? Quite an
achievement! Better than the Olympic Games…Can’t wait to read all your adventures and
meetings.
Following Autolycus in Paris at the moment. I’m lucky to have friends like you and him
for my cyber travels!!!
