The last few kilometres that lead into Georgetown were along the Rail Trail, a beautifully green and quite trail that leads through the backcountry and avoids all highways and traffic.
My legs are feeling surprisingly good after yesterday's effort, so managed to arrive at 1300, pretty much exactly when I said I would.
A soak in a hot bath and a tasty pasta lunch soon had me on the road to relaxation. After a nap, the kids had me playing soccer and frisbee on the lawn.
It was amazing to see Tracey again after all these years. Growing up, we saw each other every December in Cape Town for a few weeks. I think it has been about 17 years since we last saw each other!
We all went into Acton this evening for a game of "Jeoparody", which we came second in. Out of 2 teams!
Home for tea and "Balaklava".

Just love the sign! Great to catch up with Tracey - and to still have the energy to play with the kids!
