Sunday morning 7.00 we arrive at Mt Warning. Had rained the night and day before so thought we might get lucky and be able to try our wet weather gear...but no..sun out and clouds gone. We have decided that this is sign it will not rain in Spain!!!Thought we would just go slow today and we did....very easy. Our packs had almost everything in, felt fine.
As we got nearer the top, the wind picked up and clouds came swirling around..but no rain..only drops off the trees from night before!!
Decided to go all the way and climb up the chain to the summit. Not many people there this week. We did pass quite a few people coming down who had been up there for sunrise..one group very happy, carrying table and chairs??!!!! There had been a marriage proposal in that group :).
Had drink and rest up the top then came slowly down again. Passed a few people and they said "you look fresh" "you look happy"!! Felt like we had not even walked when we finished, just a bit tired from getting up so early!
Only had a few leeches today and saw a worm??? photo here, striped one.
Drove into Murwillumbah to get a coffee and guess what.... It poured!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not for long though.
Now we are just getting organised for our farewell drinks next Sunday..yipeeee
I hope all goes well for both of you on your Camino. I shall look forward to reading about it.

Go for it :
ReplyDeleteLuke 15:9,10 (NIV)
"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; she who seeks finds; and to her who knocks, the door will be opened."
I so know that feeling of wanting to try out the wet weather gear.take care and enjoy
