Fortified by the caloric breakfast at Mike's Place, SWOH covered a grand total of 26 km today – even with the late start at 10:45 and plenty of elevation differences – terrific mileage!
Good news: Sabine’s leg rash – "golfer’s rash” – seems to be subsiding.
Today, our intrepid pair glimpsed the snow-covered San Jacinto Mountains in the distance (s. photo), their next destination. Tomorrow SWOH will have to be up with the birds in order to cover the 16 km to the Paradise Valley Cafe before 2 pm, which closes on Mondays at 3 pm. SWOH are already looking forward to the hamburgers served at the cafe!
(The translator is beginning to suspect this is not a hiking journey, but rather a foodie expedition ... Guten Appetit, my friends!)
Vicarious blogger Gabriele is now signing off for a couple weeks, heading up to the southern coast of Norway between Kristiansand and Bergen. I'll be back in early May with an update on Sunshine and King Olli’s adventures in Amerikaland!
