Donauradweg: Plattensee - Baja
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.
Donauradweg: Ciocănești - Viziru
Ciocănești - Viziru
I might have overdone it with breakfast and lunch today—0.5kg of muesli, 0.5 liters of milk, and two bananas left me feeling quite bloated. After that, I could barely bend over due to my swollen stomach!
The landscape became increasingly picturesque after passing Călărași, with more horses appearing along the roadside, adding to the charm of the journey. In the evening, I got lucky when a rain front could not reach me. To top it off, I met some very hospitable Romanians who kindly invited me into their home. Although they only spoke Romanian, we managed to communicate using the iTranslate app.
Passo San Jorio
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.

In Dingboche, we set out on our next acclimatization hike to Chukhung.
The weather was changing, and we encountered the first snowfall of this trip.
