A quick morning breakfast with T ended up being a 4 hr affair. Sitting in the morning sun enjoying pineapple juice, fruits and bruschetta with bacon, avocado, tomato and balsamic was wayyyy too good to walk away from.

T eventually managed to dragged me off the seat and suggested we do some riding.

As we headed north, we decided to veer off traditional routes and do some exploring...

We took the turn off to Upper Colo and was greeted with some nice flat easy dirt road. We also managed to coax and befriend a very pretty horsie.



As we stopped for more pictures, Steve on the Yamaha dirt bike dropped by to say hello and asked if we were ok. Unfortunately for him, as he took off, the rear of his bike started sliding left and right and it turned out he had a flat rear tyre. We hung around to help him with his bike and eventually, T had to pillion him to get help as there was no reception where we were.


As we went along our merry way down Comleroy Road, all we encountered were four wheel drive. It was a bumpy journey and the most exciting parts where the 15km/hr hairpin turns and the ride through some water! I definitely felt like I was on a mini adventure! And who would have guessed I like dirt roads!



And on the way home, we were greeted by a very very beautiful peacock! What a pleasant day!
