Day 78 (Wednesday)
As you have probably worked out from the photos there are
two cats that have adopted us during our stay here in Kalivaki Cottage. They are called Mum and Kitten as we are
trying not to name them because that will make it even harder to leave them
behind.
After we had given the cats their breakfast this morning
they wandered off for their morning constitutional. Thirty minutes later they returned and Tracey
said that Mum had something in her mouth – Yikes! It’s a snake!
Presents like that we can do without.
As we obviously didn’t want it she gave it to Kitten for her to play
with. Fortunately, it was dead and she
took it over the wall with her.
After that excitement we needed a nice long walk. Instead of going down the path we went up the
track into the mountains. It was hard
work but well worth the effort as we could see both sides of the island when we
got towards the top. We found a nice spot for lunch surrounded by alpine flowers (and goat poo). When we got back I worked out
that we were 700m above sea level (about two thirds of a Mount Snowdon).
