WRC part III

Today was the best day for being out on the water yet, despite the morning rain and afternoon showers. Actually, this place looks and feels more at home when it rains. The heavy rain clouds held up and suspended in the hilltops of the dense impenetrable rainforest with the lichen, moss covered cliffs falling straight into the rain drop covered river all seem to blend together effortlessly in the wet. The colours become more vivid and the scenery comes alive with cascading waterfalls and gushing side streams. Anyway, tried my best to describe it. The effort of paddling the beast of a canoe eased up today and managed to find a rhythm that was sustainable for all of the day bar the last hour which again became a bit of a slog but we're currently pitched with a view. Check out the photo. Makes the days efforts worthwhile. Day 4 over, 3 more to go. Cheers
