First day on the trail - Wednesday, 16th


Another gloomy and rainy morning greeted us as breakfast got underway.  Porridge and black tea with sugar to get the party started.  

Hit the trail by 7:15 from Syrgat and was happy to no longer be in a 4x4.  

About an hour in the rain FINALLY broke and the sun poked its head out for a touch around lunch time. 

To say the views are amazing is a massive understatement.  We followed boiling rivers of rapids, waterfalls, and huge canyons with sheer walls thousands of feet tall straight up. 

Here are a couple of pics from the day. 


One of countless number of suspension bridges.


We finished around 4:30 and now for some more tea and dinner and in bed by probably 8:00.  Still having fun with the 10:45 minute time change 😄

Dinner tonight:  black tea with white rice and curry potatoes. Not so bad.
