Today was the first day that I had time to get our since I crippled myself doing part of the Cape-to-Cape in shoes one and half sizes too small.

  So I decided to take it easy and just do a short hike around the Mundaring Weir – especially as the temperature was hovering around 37^oC.

The trail is easy and clearly marked.

The added bonus of this walk is also that you can park next to the Mundaring Weir Hotel and have a pint of beer

at the end of the walk! (Yes that is my pint on the bar.)

Anyway, the real news is that I can walk again! My new boots are find, my feet have healed and after the hour it took me to do the short hike I almost felt like doing it again.

Great views, a beautiful place and only 40 minutes from home. Fantastic!

Coincidentally there was this story about the Bibbulman track (which of course the trail I was on is part of)in the paper today:
