Sat 24th October As nice as the heated blanket was, I felt very stuffy the next morning, like leaving the heating over night at home. OH WELL Got the 6am coach, really wanted to sleep, but no go, as annoying as that was, the annoyance soon disappeared as soon as the daylight began to rise and we saw there in front of us the beautiful surroundings, breathtaking. This has to have been one of the best bus routes for views that we have done yet, however, it was def...

My foot was killing me today, since the walk up the mountain, I t...
