Only 11 walkers this week and 6 dogs so a nice little group.

A hard walk in the heat but well worth the effort. Fantastic scenery, blue skies, abundant wild flowers, a bit of a breeze and some shady parts. It took us 2 3/4 hours to do the 10kms as we had to keep resting in the shade with the dogs.
