Hi Folks,
I took my day off today, after feeding the chickens, wrestling the goats and dosing the pool with chlorine of course.
I drove to the start of the Cape Raoul walk and headed off at 10. The Cape is part of the "3 capes walk", Cape Hauy which I have completed and Cape Pillar which is an overnighter so I am unlikely to do it. The walk started with some extremely boggy sections which were more hazardous coming back in the downhill direction. The walk had fairly standard views for this area i.e. Spectacular sheer cliff drops of 200 metres to the sea. The vegetation consisted of open forests to start with some parts dry and some very damp. This gave way to some low coastal shrubs and groves of Casuarina trees.
All up the distance travelled was 14.4km so a good days exercise. I arrived back at the car at 330. On my return to the resort I hosed the dirt from my boots did a few minor chores and cooked our tea. Included in the tea was the home grown eggs which were very tasty but with thicker shells than I am used to.
Another day off on Tuesday yahoo!
night folks
Simon
