Lake Balaton - Baja

100 km of nothing but fields and farms with many dogs dead and alive, as well as other carcasses that I'd seen or smelled from time to time. Sometimes the opposing traffic would pass a truck while I passed it → scary.

Today my planned route ended on a dirt road that stopped at some point. To get back on a road I had to push my bicycle a good piece of cross-country. Because I then came out somewhere else than planned and there are just a few roads in this area, I now had to cycle a short stretch of expressway to be able to cross the highway.

In the evening I experienced that the number of mosquitoes has increased considerably.

Transalp 2013

Diese Etappe führt von Trafoi aus auf einer Passstraße mit unzähligen Spitzkehren hinauf auf das 1000 Meter höher gelegene Stilfser Joch.

Von dort geht es über den Umbrailpass weiter auf den Bocchetta di Forcola, dem mit 2768m, höchsten Punkt unserer Tour. Die Abfahrt vom Bocchetta di Pendolo mündet von einem wunderschönen, sich in das Tal schlängelnden, Trail in einen Schotterabhang mit recht grobem Schotter, bis man letztendlich in Bormiò ankommt.

Das Etappenziel Santa Caterina Valfurva erreichten wir am Spätnachmittag und somit hatten wir die am Vortag verloren gegangene Zeit wieder aufgeholt.

Everest Basecamp Trek (EBC): Namche Bazar - Tengboche

The trek from Namche Bazar to Tengboche offered breathtaking views of the towering mountains that surrounded us.
In the evening, we watched a prayer ceremony of Buddhist monks at Tengboche Monastery, where we took a moment to appreciate its serene beauty and the spiritual atmosphere that enveloped the area.
