Day 4 | Avon River near York: sometimes you just happen on an OK campsite
60 km | zzOz total: 199 km
A cool night and I spend 12 hours horizontal, most of it asleep.
Guess the task of leaving Perth has been harder than I thought, both emotionally and physically.
A cool day as well with not a cloud in the sky and as you probably guessed now I’ve turned the corner and am finally heading south the wind has died.
I’ve followed the Avon River upstream but after Northam the valley widens and the going is easier. It’s Day 4 and after battling for the first 3 it’s a relief to relax into a rhythm and just keep trucking on. Might take a few weeks with it all coming together with the pedalling.
Found a thick casuarina forest down by the “river”, it doesn’t actually flow much although there is some water, the needles provide a thick mattress.
This is the life.
