Mikumi

Coffee and bread at Jenefa's Cafe was breakfast. Then over the river, bridged, and into the day's easy section of gentle downhill for 40 km. Baobab and tarmac the predominant features. Then a chunky 300m uphill to the high point. Some tough bits, and a bit of truck surfing to get up the last pinch climb. Hot day for it. The last 13km into Mikumi wound downwards with a few mild exceptions. Found a reasonably priced lodge, took care of the laundry and headed out to dinner as the neighbouring pub cranked up the equivalent 80s bangers. Fortunately not intrusive as I hit the sack later that night. Gingery beer was a hero drink tonight, so gingery.Baca lagi
