I woke up refreshed and ready to start the day. Having packed up my things I took a trip to the office to pay. While there I loaded up on ideas for some of the scenic spots worth seeing before saying my goodbyes and venturing south.
The long stretching pavement cut a path through the thick forest that surrounded it on either side. A train track ran parallel to the road for some time before it darted off into the brush and the road became a lonely path of it’s own once more.
A good ways into the drive and I noticed a creative arrangement of stones as people had left names and messages for passerby’s to see. Some were spray painted and others plain, a neat little addition to the scenery.
The journey was lengthy and the heat of the day scorching, I found myself stopped often to refill my water bottle. One of these stops I noticed something standing out along the side of the road, sure enough I’d just discovered a wild raspberry patch. I smiled as I walked up, proceeding to stuff my face.
I was determined to cover a lot of ground and kept good pace as I ventured south. The roads guided me through thick forests that turned to farmland and swampy fields where bulrushes grew in abundant number. At last I arrived in Dauphin where I placed my tent for the evening.
