Pencarrow Lighthouse Hike

Today I went with Michael on a little hike to the Pencarrow lighthouse as we thought. This little hike
ended up as a 13.4km hike and I was pretty exhausted afterwards but happy. The weather was
fantastic for that endeavour, sunny, 14 degree celsius, windy. The wind led to really nice waves
and a salty taste of the air.

I didn’t check on the map how far it was and thought it might be a walk of one hour to lighthouse,
well it took a while longer and after two hours I hoped to see the lighthouse around every corner.
Then it appeared but was placed on a steep hill to punish me even more on the last minutes. After
I lost my lung on the way up I was glad to see that it was worth the effort. WHAT A FANTASTIC VIEW!
To the left green hills with sheep and lakes, to the front the Cook Straight, to the right the Red Rocks,
to the back Wellington Bay and above blue sky. The waves driven by the wind crashing into the
rocks on the shore, withe water piling up, cyan blue water. I love it!

I think it was not possible to take shitty pictures on that day no matter where you were pointing
the camera. What a fantastic day.

I really have to do more of those hikes to train my body so that I’m not so exhausted and be
able to enjoy the vistas more and explore more of this country.
