Wahoo we are in the Lake District!

Expect lots of photos as I can’t help but take a load of them. We got moving and decided to miss the Blue Pools. We have been there before and although it is beautiful, it is Sunday on a long weekend. We reach Makarora West and continued on another 4km to the cafe.

The cafe was so cosy with a fire going. I really didn’t want to leave. We found our friend the fisherman from last night. Looks like he owns the place. How funny. I had a good amount of food not too much. Rowan had more and regretted it until we got to The Neck.

When we took off again we were racing the weather. A light bit of rain got us but not much. The uphill was easier than I thought it would be and I was happy to see Lake Hawea. Now to get to the township end.

Two blips in the map means two ups. I walked them both. My legs were burning by then. 65km day and I am pooped.
