The next morning we drove to a seal colony along the coast. I was expecting a couple of seals but this colony was 80,000 seals big so there were thousands of them chilling out on the beach which made it smell pretty suspect but it was amazing to see them all.

It's the rainy season and it was ridiculously wet which meant the road became a bit of a river so we had to go to Sokomund early - this is the river we finally decided we couldn't get across... at which point we cracked open the ciders and readied ourselves for another monster drive to get to the next place!

We were meant to stay up in this mountain range for the night, see some cave paintings and sleep out under the stars which are incredible because its in the middle of nowhere but unfortunately the weather had other plans...
