Tuesday afternoon leaving work..raining yay!! We can get to try out our gear and see what happens in the rain..... no such luck..1/2 hour later, boots and backpacks on, walking down Bilambil hill in the sunshine, we were attacked by mozzies!!!!!!! And I do mean attacked!!! They just swarmed on us..warm and steamy getting bitten on every bit of flesh that was not covered!! we turned around and went along another road instead of going along the water (where MORE mozzie live!!) But the little blighters stayed with us!!! We got to the top of the hill, bites all up our arms, then thought we would just go home. But then decided to just do a bit more. Ended up doing 1 and 1/2 hours.
SO.. we are never walking in Bilambil again after rain!! Did other training this morning, boxing, stairs etc to strengthen up the body. Not sure what long walk we are doing next.
Hoping for more rain to test things out. Trying to decide whether or not to get a poncho??
30 sleeps till we leave, getting excited now.
