Maddie and I got up early and went for a hike with the East London hiking club.
There were about 40 of us. It was about 6 KMs along some jungle growth on top of sand dunes. Then thick brush for a few kilometers, then along the seashore. The seashore was very rocky and we spent much of the time helping each other up and down steep rocky pathways.
It was good exercise, and nobody got hurt. It took about 4 hours.
Now we are home, and I am packing and Maddie is preparing Padkos (literally - Road food) for me to munch on the bus. Otherwise I will have to buy expensive candy bars along the way.
I have arranged for a Taxi to take me home from the bus station in Pretoria. I then need to get my Beetle running and visit the wound care lady.
The house here, that Maddie is living in has been sold, so I'll not see it again. It has been a pleasant place to get away from Pretoria. We don't have any idea where they are moving to next.
I'll try to send this from Bloemfontein. That is about half way to Pretoria.
No cancer thoughts today. I was very busy.
There may not be an infinite number of days like today for me. Maybe I have a few more. Maybe you will have many. Or maybe you will get hit by a bus today.
Cherish these days.

Today's walk/hike was quite challenging, but special because you were part of it. Thanks for being such a kind, caring and unselfish person. You add so much to people's lives and are invaluable to me. Thanks so much for spending the week with me, laughing with me and doing fun things together. Love you lots. M
