| It rained all day but it couldn't wash the smile of my face. It was a fun day out. |
The forest was beautiful and the trails were technical.
I felt adventurous not only because of this, but also because I was by myself, noone knew where I was and I didn't have any phone coverage.
When I got there and realised I had no coverage I probably should have abandoned but I'm glad I didn't - I would have felt even more stupid the next day when I fell over my feet.
