Log No 222. Wed 22nd Jan 2014 - Broad Haven to Dale, 18 miles (3401 miles walked)
Looking back to Broad Haven |
It wasn't a bad forecast for today and it didn't matter about tomorrow because I would be back at the camper so I packed the rucsac with the minimum kit I would need and went to catch the 08.20 bus back to Broad Haven.
Martins Haven |
I had to go to the bus station, where I should have gone all along, and get the next bus which wasn't until 10.20 so I lost 2 hours walking time. I was wanting to do as much as I could to make it easier for tomorrow.
Marloes Sands |
Westdale Bay |
My rucsac took a long while to get used to, with not having carried a full pack, and this one wasn't anywhere near full, since September I was really feeling the weight.
St Anne's Head |
I had covered the distance I was hoping to but finding a pitch was proving difficult. I finally found a big enough piece of flat ground at 17.20, there was just enough light with the mostly clear sky.
By the time the tent was up it was pretty much dark, I didn't feel like cooking by torch light so I just had snack food and a mug of tea.
18 heavy miles with no rain.
