I awoke for the 20th time. This time from my stupid alarm and not from the INCREDIBLY noisy beds. Every time someone would make a slight move the beds would protest in a high pitched cry. Really bloody annoying it was. Combined with the previous nights star of the show that was a snorer that rattled the windows I was a rather aggy Jack.

Seriously, the sound of the beds was like a children’s school show where they bring out the little tykes, recorders in hand, ready to blow the parents away with their “skills” yet ultimately making everyone’s ears bleed.

Anyway, I had a very, very lazy beach day planned with my equally as rubbish pilgrim friends. I felt a tiny bit bad about it after speaking to some Austrian girl who had covered the same distance I had done but 7 days faster. 

Ah well, she wasn’t on a beach today so who’s the mug now Austrian girl! 

Not too much to report today except that I bottled surfing because the waves were higher than my knees and I ate a “salad” out of a tin can. 

I decided at 6 to walk to the next town 6km away. Even for me 6pm is a rather late start but I didn’t fancy camping in the rain.

Turned out that the place I went to was full so I ended up camping anyway. Let’s just hope that it holds off until my tent is away. I haven’t put my tent away in the rain yet but I can make an educated guess that it will be crap. 

Like I said. Lazy day today so not much to report. I’m currently writing this in my tent with my red night light on. Who knows, I may even have made a few quid by the morning!!
