Another beautiful morning, hot sun, cool air, and I'm ready for the last hike on this trip, into the Cady Mountains behind me

Another dry granola-and-fruit breakfast with coffee (and a couple of Vietnamese honeyed-kumquats for dessert) and I'm slowly psyching myself to go. I first woke up at 6h30 (too early!), but went back to sleep until about 8h45.
