Our bags are nearly packed for whoever picks them up to transfer them to our next lodging. I’m dressed, including my new Green Walks shirt. Looking outside, on our little patio, I see that there is fog up in the mountains, and I am guessing we will be walking up that way.

But first we have to wait for breakfast, and it sounded like that isn’t served until 8:00. (But perhaps one of us will go down and verify that.)

If the weather app is to be believed we might avoid rain today, but we’ve learned not to trust the app entirely, so we are prepared for the wet stuff if we do encounter it.

I read about “snakes and ticks and caterpillars, oh my!” Yes, caterpillars. The kind that sting and can even kill a small animal. And yes, snakes of the venomous sort. But mostly we can avoid things, and snakes are more scared of us than we are of them. (Okay, maybe just as scared if you are talking about me!) There are also dogs we might have to threaten with our trekking poles. But all these warnings are, I’m sure, things that might happen, but probably won’t. At least that’s my hope!

For now, though … downstairs to see about that breakfast time, and once we finish our breakfast and packing we’ll be on our way. Stay tuned for the Day One Report.
