Week 5 and Easter Walk

It has been a few weeks since my last entry, a bit busy and now we are only 11 weeks away and still so much to decide on.

Week 5 of the walk will be the final days and probably wishing it would quickly finish.

Ballevourney - Gougane Bara - Glengarriffe - Adrigole - Castletownbeare - Dunboy Ruins

Easter break was the trial 3 day walk for Sue and I from Yarraman to Moore along the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail, I have now walked the trail from Wanora to Yarraman over several months and some very hot days. Easter Sunday saw us experiencing what we fully expect in Ireland - rain and more rain.  At least now I know that I am going to get wet, probably a large percentage of the time. We had a rethink about what we are carrying and a lot is not coming, I can survive with one set of extra clothes (I think), I can really wear the same shirt for a few days (I think), at least my sister says we can. So glad she is with me.

We have both been to a podiatrist since the walk and come away with a wealth of ideas and I feel a little less in my pocket.  Also a new camera on the way after it got a little wet and then dropped on the cement - not real healthy. All in all a great few days and many changes to come.

In a few weeks I head to Mackay to repeat a few long walks but until then smaller ones each morning.

We have had a couple of nights accommodation in Cork not happening so back to searching the internet or we will be sleeping in the local park. The fun of it all.
