According to the guide, today’s section is the toughest. Couldn’t be any tougher than yesterday. Although the ascents were steeper, which meant the descents were also steeper, especially with loose large gravel under your feet. There were more ks today, and another 400 metres in total height. Fourteen hundred, and more tomorrow. In other words, the cliffs were bigger, which meant the coast line was even more stunning. Apparently, another tough stage tomorrow and more ks again. Twenty seven. Like yesterday,there was some lovely walking through meadows. However, the up and downs became frequent and harder as the day wore on,and some scary ones,where you were descending ,and no edges if you happen to slip.Randy is still nursing his dicky knee, but feels he has that under control. I left my water bottle behind, so I had to drink water from the lovely water falls that were cascading along the little creek that sometimes appeared at low levels along the path. No rain at all today. The sun came out every now and then from behind the clouds, and the wind was incredibly strong at times, especially when hiking over the tops of the cliffs. I can’t believe I got sunburnt today. The weather was probably mid 60s in Fahrenheit, so that’s probably 20 in celcius. Pleasant walking weather, apart from the gale force winds. The wind was reaching probably 50 to 60 knots I reckon, enough to throw you off balance when up high on a cliff. Any way we got there. I have lightened my pack, by taking out my waterproof shoes, my poncho and my sleeveless vest. I have a friend I met last year who lives in this region and is looking after them for me. I will pick them up another time. I think I will benefit a lot, as the lesser weight will have less impact on my knees. I’m also hoping to get in touch with my other friend. The people along this coast line are very friendly, and are only too happy to assist coast path walkers
