Walking up onto the High Moor.
Greetings Everyone,
Welcome to the final article of the Fellowship Walk 2013. Here I take the opportunity to highlight the events of last Thursdays walk.

It did not take long to walk to Rivendell.
The walk down the steep slopes did not take too long, but we were very worried that Miss Needles would fall over the edge in her search for a good vantage point.

Warm greetings and musical refreshment from Andunie
Andunie a band of musical Elves were waiting for us outside the Last Homely House with prepared music and refreshments.

Arriving at Rivendell to a very warm welcome.
Although we were foot sore and weary those of us who could, delighted the host Elves with a quick step.

Lilikate and Company showing our best “Elf 2” to the hosts.
While some went inside to visit Bilbo, others preferred to stay outside and enjoy the music.

The View from our vantage was simply stunning.
From here you could see the path we walked stretching far into the distant heights.

The Mounted Parade ready to display outfits.
From her vantage point Alsel got a good glimpse of the mounted parade. Riders and Mounts ready to impress the audience.

Getting things started: Lilikate on Teal Fireworks Pony, Sparkle.
Here I am on Sparkle, I love how every now and then she sets off a beautiful whiz-cracker!

All our Mounted Parade contestants.
After a short amount of time everyone voted for their favourite “Rider and Mount” a clear winner was chosen by the gathered free-folk. Mithrilfist was awarded as a prize 100 fireworks!

Mithrilfist and his mount looking very smart.
Mithrilfist on his black pony decked in lovely blue tac. A well deserved winner of our little parade.

A well deserved cheer!
As events drew to a close we have this screenshot of our Mounted Parade winner to share.

A highlight of the entire walk.
Our long line of participants for the Mounted Parade all looking lovely.

A walk for Funzies!
To celebrate the Fellowship Walk’s grand success Lilikate offered our bravest walkers the opportunity to tour the cold camps of the Fellowship in Eregion. So we head off again to walk though the lands of Middle-Earth.

Nightime in the Trollshaws.
As we made our way over the miles of terrain, night turned to day. The heat turned to frost and back warm again.

We made it!
We had very brief but succinct closing speeches all that arrived at the Sirannon Gate were given a very special prize.
One port back to Michel Delving by Lilikate Buggins herself.
We raised $5902.50 for Child’s Play!
Well done everybody! From those people who handed in craft or rep items to make auction packs, to everyone who walked or played music. To those who donated time and those who donated funds. Looking back on the last month there have been so many helpers and supporters it is impossible for me to remember them all. So a big collective thanks to all of you.
Hugs and salutes are available to all who I meet in my travels.
