Day 9 – Sunday 29 January.

5.00 am: Another early start under a red sky. It is drizzling but not windy.We are aiming for Bahia Sloggett.

12.23 pm: A rare north easterly wind helped us for the first 3 hours. Then a westerly head wind started as we reached Bahia Sloggett so we decided to stop here, at an old gold mining camp. We covered 20 miles before 11 am!

5.51 pm: We looked round the old mine works. Although we are 20 miles from the road here, three guys on horses and a hiker panning for gold just walked past! We have been treated to sun, hail and rain.

    Well done….you’re going pretty steady! Ben’s a bit jealous of all the birds and wildlife you’re seeing.I paddled across from Aberdaron yesterday to bring back some antibiotics for the sheep…a really still day…but now it’s back to wet and windy,and cold…-1’c with wind-chill. Glad to hear you’re enjoying yourselves. Steve&family.
