Lovely to sleep in again today. Even though we only have 3 riders, there still seems to be just as much work as for 20 (except maybe in the lifting of bags and the amount of food I have to cook.
Usual rest day today for most of us except Jill decided to ride out to the blowhole and back. I did offer to drive her but she wants to ride. It is approximately 75 kms there and of course the same back. She will end up doing at least 75 kms into the wind. It was apparently worth the effort and the blow holes impressive.
Collis and I went to the local market but only bought food. They did have purses and wallets made out of cane toads with little cane heads on them. Our youngest daughter would probably liked one but they were pretty expensive. Then we went down to the mile long jetty and here we ran into Jurgen. They wanted $5 to walk the jetty so we decided to just view it from the lookout tower. The museum was interesting.
Gareth slept in this morning and he and Collis caught the lunchtime bus to the local races. I stayed in camp doing the books and Jurgen rested by his tent. The boys came back evens having not won or lost (or actually they did both).
2nd last rest day for this leg.
