Stepping Out

We have heard that there is a craze for people to wear a FitBit to monitor their daily/ weekly/ monthly activity as measured in steps. If we'd embraced this fad we'd probably have exploded the device the day we decided to take the steps from Palm Beach to Ocean Beach. Not including the walking along a roadway to the steps that take you down from the ridge you've just ascended, we estimate there are some 700 steps each way. A two-way total of 1,400. This figure could have been more accurate if I wasn't actually in a state of semi-distress while counting.

We began at sea level and we're only half way up.

OK, so now we head down.


 

 
Oh lordy! Sea level on the ocean side.
Contemplating the trip back!

Plan 'A' had been to do this 'walk' today and then the Barrenjoey Walk the next day. The plan was revised on an 'urgent needs' basis. Our calves needed to recover from their very cramped and stiff status before we could even think of any more billy goat trekking.
