We still woke up reasonably early and enjoyed a leisurely breakfast of hot porridge in our room. Then we got on with general holiday chores before sitting on our balcony for a while. The weather was bright, fresh but not overly warm.
There was a world championship Mountain Biking event taking place in the resort and so there were riders and bikes everywhere. We found where the event was taking place and wandered around the very specific trade stalls. It was all very busy and so we decided to go back to the apartment for Lunch. I picked up an Aussie pie from a takeaway back with me to eat on the balcony. Karen ate her leftover Pizza from the previous night.
After another chill out time spent reading we decided to go on another short walk to the Upper Village. Well it should have been a short walk but I managed to get us hopelessly lost and we managed to walk over 1 mile in the wrong direction. Somehow we turned the wrong way after crossing a car park. After about 20 minutes we came across a map which showed we were going wrong, so I thought I corrected us but actually took us even further away from our destination. Karen was actually very understanding. It is most unlike me to get my direction and sense of direction so badly wrong. I was so confused how I went so wrong and it wasn't until we reached where we had gone wrong that I worked out what I had done.
Eventually we made it to the Upper Village which seemed posher than the actual village. We found a good bar and sat outside having some wine and a local beer.
Tonight we were served by another fellow Brit. It is remarkable how many youngsters are out here working, alongside many Aussie's and people from NZ.
We went back to apartment where we chilled before retiring for the night.
Today had felt like a day off from the holiday and seemed a bit strange. But we were both quite tired and so this was good time in great surroundings to catch up. Tomorrow we start again on exploring the mountains and other sights.
