PostHeaderIcon Wind stops play

I didn’t even look out of the tent when the alarm went off this morning. I just went straight back to sleep – or tried to through the sounds of the rain pelting and the wind blasting the thin fabric enclosing us. JF did the same without the need to communicate. It was miserable out there and too windy to make any worthwhile progress.

When our bladders finally demanded we brave the elements, the white caps on the sea against us confirmed our choice. Back to bed until well after noon when it was our stomachs turn to force us out of our warm cocoon. Pizza for lunch, a few jobs and back to the cosy red tent. Total exploration today was as far as the bathroom, kitchen and water supply. It’s nice to have a chilled day off chatting and recuperating. A long trip like this makes you reflect on life and it’s powerful. Despite that, we hope that the bad weather passes sooner than forecast (tomorrow is also due to be windy from an unfavorable direction). The alarm will go off at 3am tomorrow just in case, and it remains to be seen whether it gets the same treatment.
