Romford to Southend and back 14th March 09

I left Romford for a 67 mile return journey to Southend on Sea.I traveled through Romford,Hornchurch and Upminster, where I stopped to take a picture of the Upminster Windmill.

Then onwards through West Horndon, Bulphan, Langdon Hills and into Basildon. I stopped to take a picture of the view from the top of a very steep hill in Langdon.

From Basildon I traveled into Vange, Pitsea, Bower Gifford and round Sandlers Farm roundabout and onto Benfleet up Bread and Cheese Hill. I continued along the A13 London Road through into Leigh On Sea where I took a couple more pictures then into Chalkwell, Westcliff and eventually into Southend on Sea. Where I stopped for a bag of chips and a few photos before I started back for home. Return journey was awful with a headwind all the way home. I have never been so knackered before and this is my longest journey to date.
