Trapped

We did not need the weather forecast to tell us to stay in bed this morning, the tent bending winds and heavy rainfall were sufficient. The weather forecast did, however, force us to rethink our journey as the winds have picked up and changed direction, essentially trapping us on our beach. Still, there are worse places in the World to be stuck.

It was 13:00 before the weather released us from our tent-shaped prison.

First, we scampered out along a rocky ridge to the edge of the bay to see if we could formulate an escape plan. As far as the eye could see there were white-capped waves crashing all around. There was no escaping today. Maybe tomorrow.

The rest of the day was filled with exploring along the coastline, drying and repairing, recharging body and gadgets, asking "what if...?" and fishing.

With the sun setting and the winds dying down, the final weather forecast of the day gave us a glimmer of hope for tomorrow.
