So what happened next was a little stressful hence there is only one picture available.
We came across a warning sign
Beware of farm animals (Bulls)
Beware of poisons
Electrified fences in use and a few more that I can’t remember.
So i look up at the style (steps to get over fences) that were are about to use and guess what. You guessed it just metres away a couple of Bulls.
A couple of quick thinking gentlemen hopped the fence and then through a gate to the next paddock to safety, we thought.
This paddock looked doggie at best for hiking, Jerome went ahead to see if we could actually get out of the paddock.
I followed soon after, there was no way these Bulls were going to let us by on their Turf.
Jeromes yells back to me be careful the wire is live (Electrified) just I grabbed a wooden post my sleeve soaking with sweat touched the live wire, I know why the Cattle don’t play with these fences.
What a great day of up’s and downs, we are camped at a B & B tonight.
A huge day of Beach walking tomorrow.
Good Night
