... When you load up two bikes, two trailers , grab 2 adults, 3 kids and throw in 50km? An epic Cycle Camping Week ;)
Anyway, it took us TWO DAYS just to organise our stuff! Then we had the task of loading it all up on the trailers, something we had never done! We had all been out on the bikes, but never loaded with gear... we were getting nervous... and questions were swirling in our minds: Would we be able to pull the weight? Would it break the trailers? Will we pass out from exhaustion? Etc etc... Ultimately came the time to load up... We got to the camp ground and started setting up our camp. We then realised we forgot the kid's toys! But thankfully kids are more resilient than we give them credit: Pine cones, stones and a brush each and they were brush racing with pine cones! (for literally HOURS....) We found the famous "Eco-Via" which spans the coast of the Algarve. Following it was amazing! The Trip was useful as we learned a few lessons (Another blog post soon to come!).
We learned about some limits we have, but we broke all our barriers at the same time! The Dream is ever closer. Its going to happen.... and we are so happy we could burst! Peace all!
