Wending our way back to our camp after our visit to the "Tip", we wondered briefly how we felt about not taking our van that final forty kilometres.
It wasn't that we were overly concerned for its well being, but it just made a bit of sense to take one fewer car and who wouldn't relish the chance of day-tripping in a back seat shared with an eleven year old granddaughter.
For about thirty seconds we thought that it would be a shame to have come this close and not actually take the van to the very end of the journey, but then we realised the van didn't care.
We were starting to think like those "conquistadors" and that would never do.
It was far more important and far more satisfying and so much more fun to share the experience with our Lily, and as it turned out, the van didn't seem to mind having the day off one little bit.
So we put a cross in the box on behalf of the van, and no further questions will be entered into.

I've really enjoyed your daily missives, feels like old times. May not be a boat trip down a canal but it has still been an adventure. Must have been wonderful to have family with you.
