Road trip
Up before 5am for breakfast and we are away by 6am. On the road out of the village before the sun is up and it is quite chilly. We reach the main road after about 20mins and 20mins later again pass through the town of Kuchinerai. Riding quickly it is getting very cold on the bike so we stop for me to double up on shirts.

Off to the National Park
... they do love their concrete here !! Descending back into town is more scary than the climb up and we head straight back to the hotel and drop the bike off. Walking a few yards there is a small restaurant on the corner - Sala Foremost - where we sit and have a beer watching the world go by. We are soon hungry as well so eat here at the same time.
