Day 124: Cold, foggy and 3 sweet peppers

Turned out yesterday, that my camspot wasn't great. I had chosen a very windy spot and my entrance was facing the wind. When the thunderstorm cane, it got insanely windy and lots of beech leaves were blown in my tent, since the zipper of the inner tent is broken. I used my hiking poles to stabilise the tent against the wind and to prevent the outer tent to touch the inner one. It was only a short but heavy shower, but the wind was still stronger and stayed like that even the next day. I still manged to sleep well, but in the morning it was foggy, freezing cold and windy. So it took me a while to get out of my sleeping bag.

The entire mor ing I walked through fog, but just before noon, when I was also a little lower in elevation, the sun came out. So I took an early lunch, making use of the sun and putting out my solar panel. I had a luxury lunch, since I had found 3 sweet peppers on trail, somebody must have lost. They were perfect with my crackers :)

Today was mainly in the forest, with some slight ups and downs. After noon it got warmer and sunny, so I got rid of my gloves, but never took off my pullover and rainjacket.

Nothing spectacular today, just easy walking and loads of blackberries!!!


Foggy morning

Cracker for lunch with some sweet peppers

What a car and it is actually still in use - somebody was cutting wood in the forest

Small chapel on my way
