Not quite so early today, gone six and still at breakfast.

A lovely bright morning.

A last hasty check on kit before the off.

Luke in the doorway was pleased to see the rabbit device above the door - it is his favourite rugby league team "The Rabbitohs".

One of the porters brings his little boy to the pre-walk chant.

Off we go again - we are getting used to the routine now.

All the villages have gardens but here they are more serious about it.

Back to the muddy climb

After a bit the kitchen porters catch up having cleaned up all the cooking pots after breakfast

Apparently we are heading in that direction

A short photo stop - a chance to have a breather. John never stops at these and just keeps walking on to be overtaken later as we all catch him up - he is still suffering from tummy trouble.

This is my porter Dick's home village and these are his nieces. We had a short break here while he went to pay his respects to the rest of his family

A flat stretch for a change

John looks a bit more perky now, he must be feeling better

No-one fell in here but I got a wet foot when I nearly overbalanced

We reach Nauro and the cooking fire is lit

Nauro main street

Those who have them are advised to use their mosquito nets tonight - here Rob looks for somewhere to hang his.

Noodles to go into those delicious ham rolls he makes for lunch

Damp and misty tonight which makes it feel even more steamy

Afternoon nap in progress - Rob and Deb under their rather romantic looking tent

Luke about to get his big toes bitten!

The mist becomes thicker

The evening seems clearer now as the phones are collected from the solar panel driven charging point.

Pasta and meat sauce tonight
