Cool morning that turned very hot.
4km in, I reached my first 1,000 km.
Entirely rural today. Asked to bloke to fill my water bottle and around 2ish stopped for a beer, but mostly to refill depleted water.
After a double shop at aldi because everything will be closed tomorrow, continued to campsite through a proper wild campable forest. Wasnt expecting campsite to be even there, let alone have space, but both came good.
Learned in bar here that its Gh’hoo Gh’ardan, not Hoe-Garten, where gh is a rough gutteral sound. Bar man even hunted out a pint glass for me.
One local said he’d watched the queen today (plat joob). Asked me what i thought. I said i ljked what the french did in 1789.
Thunderstorms now. Big rain forecast tomorrow.
Distance today (km) 27, total 1023
