The day started without headaches and nausea after yesterday's party. Maybe I should quit smoking altogether, it went very well without it. As I said, nobody smokes in Panama.
Today we had scrambled eggs and corn tortillas for breakfast. Strengthened, we went on a hiking tour. Susi decided against the bike.
It went on like this. Sweat, blood and tears (me). A person passes us in a kind of lunar vehicle. Help! Take us with you! What an asshole!
Keep going. Take off the backpack. Let your back breathe. Morale at its lowest point. Keep going and going. Pull yourself together!
Finally, the junction to the summit. A narrow path. Suddenly, continuous rain. A quick shelter in a hut.
Continuing to the summit. Wet feet and barely any visibility. Over rocks and stones. Are we there yet? I think so! Zero visibility. Oh no! Wind and rain. Descend!
Be careful not to fall. Steep descent. It clears up.
Backtrack. The drunk guy is fine, he meets us and thanks us for the help. Will he make it?
We made it after 15 extreme kilometers. Time to relax in the hammock. Tomorrow we continue towards the west. Excitement and melancholy.
