Day 64 Kabra to Bouldercombe

Kabra's camp spot and single dongas

Saturday 19th June, 2021 16.5km

1702.9 / 3396 km

I left the pub about 7am and have to walk a kilometre back to Kabra proper.

The road from Kabra is bitumen, not exciting but easy to navigate along without getting cleaned up. I sat for a break at a farm where they advertise Avocados for $5 box. The pack is heavy enough so I leave them.

This morning's road
The trail then follows a road easement and this was more pleasant as now its just me and the birds.
It's a short day today and the trail comes out at the back of the Bouldercome rubbish dump. A lady coming from the dump stops to have a chat, then I get back to civilisation and the United Service Station. I am picking up something here for dinner so I get some cheese and biscuits. I then saw a chicko roll.... Should I??? Bugger it. It looks fresher than the other one. So lunch is the roll and a Vanilla Pepsi Max. After I downed that I went and got another chicko roll. Belinda thinks that any trouble coming is self inflicted and has no sympathy.
Mangos and Avocados 

Then it's down the road to the old Royal Hotel and I slip up to the trail riders compound near the sports oval and setup inside the fence. Saved $2. That's what the lions club charge for camping behind the hotel. I give them the rest of my silver change when I go past to fill up with water.
Short day today so I spent the afternoon reading. The book has to be returned in 3 days). Big climb tomorrow.
