Second day

 Today I woke up at 6 am and started cycling 0642 sharp. I had a long day ahead so I had no time to waste. I only had breakfast after a few kilometers. It was really nice, I found a table next to the canal. While I was eating a few ships passed by it was quite interesting.

I was paddling fast, by lunch time I did more then 75 kilometers, so I looked for a nice restaurant and had a great well deserved lunch — and a beer. As it turned out one of the waitresses was from Hungary. I asked her in Hungarian for advice, she was confused and asked me if I spoke English or German. I said how about Hungarian. She was just as surprised as me. 

After lunch I hit the road again and only stoped at the river Danube. I reached the Danube! From now on that’s the only thing I have to fallow until Vienna! What an achievement! I took a quick nap on a bench and started searching for my new home. I found a nice place in the woods if only it wasn’t on the top of a freaking mountain. 

I cycled more than a 100 km I might get home a day earlier than I expected. But that’s too soon to tell…

Hope you had a great day too and see y’all tomorrow!

Good night

Eleventh day

 So yesterday was the last day of my trip. I’ve tried to get up early, but I couldn’t really, I slept until almost 7 am. While I was packing my stuff a nice lady showed up — my friend’s mom as it turned out — she suggested a bakery and wished me a good trip back home. I love it when people have the courage to talk to a stranger or half stranger. Then I hopped on my bike and started cycling. First of course I stopped at the bakery then I went thru Kaposvar until the first hill of the day. I chose the route 66 instead of 67 it seemed much safer, however there were more hills to climb… I know the road and I stopped before every big hill — big, just to clear that up — because the road was really steep and I needed fresh legs.  Near Sasd my GPS claimed was a cycling route. The traffic wasn’t that heavy on the highway, but I thought I would be nice if I didn’t get hit by a car, so I followed the GPS. Fist the road was fine, small street with relatively smooth asphalt, then it turned...

First day

 Today was the day I left my friends. I spent 3 magical day with them in Bamberg, but it was time to leave. I was worried at the night before. I didn’t know what to expect, I didn’t know where I was gonna sleep there was too many questions… After I said goodbye to my friend Chris I got immediately lost. I took a wrong turn and I had to go back to the exact same spot I started my journey 10 minutes before. Eventually I found the cycling lane I was looking for and I was finally on track. First I cycled 25 km. It wasn’t that hard, although my bike was heavy as a bulldozer. I starched and ate a little chocolate to reenergize myself.  My second spot was supposed to be before Nuremberg, but I had such a great momentum I didn’t felt like stopping. I did stop in Nuremberg and oh boy what a beautiful city that is. I checked out the outside of the castle, I and then went to the city center. I had my nice stretching and some leftover pizza that my friends gave me.  After Nuremberg I...
