Rainbows raincoats and roundabout routes

Second day off starts wit a trip to the GP 20 miles of single track road through the clouds with Rae refusing to look. GP very concerned that her BP was extremely high🧐. We then set off for our first long walk. Supposed to be 8 miles in dry weather turned out to be 13 miles in very inclement weatherđŸ„ș. Got lost in the mountains drenched to the skin with poor visibility and no signal for mapsđŸ˜±. Rae took it very well Gordon not impressed!

Omg sounds like a real adventure. No one at your campsite will make the same mistake. Glad you are all ok to tell the tale. Keep an eye on Rae for me xxx
