Today is the day I become Koala. I have often envied the life of a koala. They spend 21 hours a day doing … nothing. Maybe chew a rubber leaf, they may scratch, but in reality, just pass the time in a tree and take a lot of nap.
I think I can be that Koala today. I am able to less than three hours of activity. And those three hours will spend eating.
Breakfast
Breakfast is provided by the shelter and is served at 630 am in its currently closed yellow deli. The official line is that the building is being renewed, the unofficial line is that some legal problems are currently being addressed.
Regardless of the situation, breakfast was a very friendly matter. They served us a lot of food and fit brilliantly on my Koala day, since I had to walk for a total of 30 seconds from my bed to the table.
One of the twelve members of the tribes took us through the renewal plans while we ate and drank, and talked about the global footprint of the organization. An easy and windy beginning of the day.
After breakfast, I carefully sailed the 30 -second walk back to my bed, being aware of not burning unnecessary calories on the trip.
Lunch
After a nap and a little blog writing, it was time to get seriously. Caloric would be that it is. Chestnut and I returned to the price helicopter, to a quite long 8 -minute walk from the shelter, where we decided our next extravagance to eat. We bought a roast chicken and a bread bar. The chicken said it was 900 GMS in the container, but we trust that it was closer to 1.5 kg. You become very good to judge the weight when everything you have is on your back every day. I can only assume that they are marked so light so that the price is always $ 7.99.
A slow return to the common area of the shelter and we raided the community fridge for leftover condiments to create three giant sandwiches each.
I managed to put a banana in my mouth after the huge lunch as appeasement for the fiber gods.
With more than one hundred and fifty grams of protein consumed since the day began, it was time to sit down and let the body be repaired.
I managed to do a homework today. He had not tried the clothes before coming to the path, and there was some leftover permethrin in the hiker box in the hostel. I sprinkled my pants and left them on the balcony to dry in the afternoon. I felt that it was probably more than a Koala would have done, so I made sure to do my homework in a very quiet way.
The afternoon went on the bed writing some blog tickets. A few more hikers arrived through the afternoon, and it was good to chat with them while leaked in the shelter.
Dinner
5pm is an excellent time for dinner. And so Castain and I put our bodies through the hateful task of walking through the required trip of sixteen minutes back to the supermarket. We obtained another 5,500 caloric pizzas and a 2L chocolate milk. Will Rogers had gone, so it meant a significant amount more foods so that we both approach it.
We plan to make a slack package the next day, Mt Killington, the highest peak of Vermont. Slackpacking is when he leaves most of the contents of his packages, either in a shelter or with a transport driver, and then walks a section of the path before meeting with the rest of the normal weight of his package. It is a much easier day. There are free buses that operate in Rutland that facilitate the logistics of this slack.
After dinner, I lay as I think a koala would have done it, I wrote some more blogs and walked away around 9.30 pm
