Tick

It rained a bit during the night and I had to get up for a pee. That was a pain and I stood on a thorn which embedded itself in my left heel. I also picked up a tick that bit my arm on my right bicep so I 'll need to watch that for the telltale red ring of Lymes Disease.
A few kilometers brought us to a town where Jeremy had a little freak-out due to his general dislike of urban areas but I was able to find a spanner and fix the wheel.
Google maps walking routes leave something to be desired as the route took us into an area tat was proclaimed to be guarded by armed guards, security cameras and had a risk of death associated with it. The detour was long. The map says only 12 klicks but I know we walked more with the detour.
We put up for the night on a disused farm track. I really need to wash myself and my clothes as my tee shirt is encrusted with salt from dried sweat.
