Itinerary description
|
We continued along the river. The weather got worse until noon, we got a good lunch at the crossroads before going into the mountains and followed them with beer. The people were all very friendly to us and pushed us for the walk beer cans.
Then we were barely 100 m on the road until a truck stopped, the loading area full of goats, the driver asked us if we wanted to ride a bit in the planned direction. So we jogged around for an hour with the goats, with our hands and feet with the Rustem, the driver entertained.
It then let us out at a nifty corner, then was uphill running announced. As in the valley already foreseeable, then came the thunderstorm, with hail and heavy rain. We were completely wet by the time we got dressed. Sullen, we wiggled uphill to a village where we asked the family if we were allowed to stand on the porch.
That was not a problem then, they invited us to spend the night in their house, which we then accepted after hesitation. The family was really friendlier to us than they had to be. It was a very beautiful evening. At 6.30 o'clock in the morning it went on for us, the hosts had also to do with the animals.
