Rest
Eat
Watch movies
Repeat
...and it was wonderful!
We stayed all day at Hiker's Welcome hostel. All there is within a 10 mile radius is a gas station food mart and a whole lot of mountains-so we ate more junk food than I've ever seen and gazed at the mountains all day. Our feet and legs could not have been happier and healed immensely in just one day.
My favorite part of staying at the hostel was experiencing true hiker community for the first time. People just kept pouring in and everyone had such a common bond...even though we are from all walks of life. Also, two of our favorite thru hikers (Sisu and Swayed) showed up even though we haven't seen them in weeks--the trail has a way of doing that. To finish the day, we all sat down to swat flies (I hope Madame notices our weapons of choice) and watch School of Rock. Goodnight from the base of the Whites.
