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.

Machland - Stift Melk - Tulln - Wien

For the first time, a complete day almost without rain that my shoes could dry!

I started in the Machland. From there I cycled via Melk through some wine-growing areas to Wien, where I also had one rest day to explore the city.

Langer aber gut zu fahrender Anstieg zum Passo San Jorio (Teer, Schotter).
Danach wird der Trail schmaler und bietet entlang dem Grenzgebiet von Schweiz und Italien schöne Aussichten in die umgebende Landschaft.

Our acclimatization hike brought us to Ama Dablam Base Camp, where we began to feel the effects of the thin, dry air, resulting in a scratchy throat reminiscent of a cold.
Ama Dablam is one of the most picturesque mountains in the area, its stunning peak standing majestically against the sky and captivating all who visit.
