In a bid to put myself into a good
position with the following two legs, which were rated as somewhat
difficult, I decided to press on with this leg. I was quite tired,
having already walked almost 40 kilometres. But it wasn't that far
for this final leg and I felt I could do it.
However, there is really not much to
say about it. It was walking along roads. Lots of them. And there
was very little to see as I did. I passed trees... and an airport
(behind a big fence)... and more trees. All while walking along a
road. Hate to say it, but...
Boring. I did find a nice place to
stay at the end of it all. I stayed in what were villa-type
apartment buildings that were converted by the family that owns them
into a motel. Nice. And they were situated right across a small
river from yet another nuclear power generating plant. They need to
work on their end points for the legs on this trail just a little
bit.
Having walked almost 50 kilometres on
this day, I was bushed. I found a place to get some grub and hit the
hay early to try and get a good night's sleep. And I hoped my feet
would feel a bit better. My new shoes are good, but 50 kilometres of
pounding can outdo even the most comfortable shoes.
