Goose egg

7.5km into our 10km hike from Manly to the Spit today, I was looking down at a water dragon and walked headfirst into a sawn-off tree branch. Hard. I saw stars. My cap kept me from serious injury, but within minutes I could feel a lump forming. It took us another 30min to get to a cafe where I could get some ice. It hurts like a bastard but I’m hoping my hat is providing some compression until I can get home. No bruise yet, but that’ll be next. Haven’t done that since I was a kid!
