Sometimes like tonight, we can meet each other by Skype. It’s rare but it’s nice :-) But this time the screen was to small to contain everybody! Haha. It was a pleasure :-)

[wpgmza id=”20″]
Hard trip, rain, cold, wind… but nice people.
Monkey island > Riverton (31km, 2h)
Hey, today is finally sunny and I’m one more time lucky :-) I’m going toward Riverton and I’ve got plenty of time because it’s not too far. I start the day by visiting Colac bay, a nice place where the Simpsons and and… Rah! I’ve forgotten their name. Anyway, they live together in a bus! I didn’t know that.
Tuatapere > Monkey island (25km, 1h30)
Today, I’m ready to continue my trip toward Riverton. I could arrived today because it’s not so far finally but I want to stop in that free campsite front of Monkey island. And it’s raining so I hope the weather will be better tomorrow.
Tatuapere, day off
OK, now I know why it was painful yesterday and the second day… This day, I’m doing nothing, just writing my blog, eating, watch a movie. Some guy put Forest Gump tonight and it was nice to see that movie again :-)
Relax :-) cool :-) Tiousse!
Port Craig hut > Hump Ridge Track > Tatuapere (17km walk, 5h + 24km cycle, 2h)
During all the day, I’ve felt a hard pain on my feet. I’ve never walk like this before and without training, 3 days it’s long! I’ m going to have one day off in Tatuapere to get more energy.
I’ve met Sally again today. She is walking so fast, even her dog! When I told her I was going to pass Riverton, she gave me here address in case they were here when I will reach the city. It’s nice :-) I don’t know when I will be there but it could be a nice experience. We never know :-)
Ōkaka hut > Hump Ridge Track > Port Craig hut (18km walk, 5h30)
Roooh! My feet are sour this morning… I hope it going to be better because now… I’ve certainly walked too fast yesterday. And I’ve forgot to tide my shoes correctly also. Maybe that’s it. I will slow down today. I’m going to reach the sea level again so I’ve got a long way front of me.
