This morning, the wind was fierce when we woke up, making us reluctant to leave the tent. Once we got up, had breakfast, drank coffee, and packed our gear, we headed out. The strong wind nearly blew us sideways as we walked, with our heads tucked deep inside our hoods.

After five hours, we noticed that we weren't covering much distance for the energy we were using, so we set up the tent.


Since then, we've spent the entire evening in our sleeping bags, enjoying ourselves immensely. Emma LOVES being stuck due to the weather, so this was a real highlight. Now we're completely refreshed and ready for another windy day tomorrow 💨

Happy Saturday from the cozy snuggle-pigs in the sleeping bag 🥰☺️
