Yes, it was another hot night. Up at 6:30 and it is already quite warm and much more humid. Packed up and we all meet at the river to say our good-byes to Kez and Judy. We have our first lock appointment at 8am just 2km down stream.
We passed quickly through lock 5 and headed on to lock 4. We held good speed today so there must have been a bit of flow in the river/lake. The good tail wind was also very welcome.
We get to Berri for lunch. When out of the boats we realise how hot it is and how much cooler it is on the water, still hot but not quite as bad.
An hour later we are at lock 4. A quick exercise and the lock master tells us that the flow will be better below the lock. He is right and we tour off down the river looking for a camp spot. there are groins in the river to dodge and we soon find a camp spot on a beach.
The evening is warm, but the storm clouds take the sting of the sun away. We get a few drops of rain, but storms seam to bypass us.
Forecast is for a cooler (less than 40) day tomorrow. Looking forward to that.
