First of all, happy mothers day!! Lots of love to Mary and Lynnie.

After a healthy start in acebo with hot chocolate, coffee and fresh toast, we set our sights on another big day. The sceney within the first ten minutes of walking was absolutely breathtaking. There were mountains in every direction. It took us an extra ten minutes to stop gaping and snapping photos.

The day went by quickly and we were mostly In the suburbs once we were out of the mountains, and before we knew it we were only 5km short of getting another stage ahead. We decided to stop here to get some rest before a big day of mountains tomorrow - should be fun. Have to go and rescue our washing from a thunderstorm now, more tomorrow!
