Nimbin

I flew into Lismore at 5pm and started running the 33k to Nimbin at 6pm. Magic calm night. Very dark with lots of stars. Wonderful smells of cooking as I left the township. Stopped briefly at a classic workers pub in Lismore to go to the loo. Every second word inside was F*** or C*** or both. Funny to hear it was so over the top.
There was  a lot of traffic for the first hour and I had to be careful not to get run over. Then it quietened down and I was alone with my thoughts and constant repetition of my footsteps.
Arrived Nimbin just after nine. Beautiful night. It was a tough run especially the last 5k. Drum festival in main street. Very Nimbin.
