Queen Charlotte Track Adventure March 10

We prepared for our walk with crumpets and honey for breakfast - yummy! Some last minute shopping was completed before boarding our water taxi to Ship Cove.

Captain James Cook visited here several times and must have carved out the start of the track - uphill. We wondered how the mountain bikers got up here until we caught them at the first lookout and they confessed to pushing the bikes uphill. Magnificent views.

 

We made good time and found our 10/10 view lunchspot to enjoy roast vegetable and chicken frittata with zucchini cake.

From there is was mostly downhill or flat to Cnoc Na Lear where Colleen and Derek looked after us well. They served us dinner on the outdoor deck area. Later we tried to work out "Cranium" as none of us had remembered to bring a deck of cards.
