From my Diary
"It's 5 am and i'm looking up at the mountains. The sun has just touched the peak of the mountain top and i said "Nahhhh".

So i got up from the bench in the bus stop, where i slept, at 9 am. It was a good thing i woke up at 9, just in time to say "HI!" to the first one using the bus stop hehehe (she was also very tired, because she behaved like this was normal!!).

The first 25.7 km i used the outstanding time of 5 h. and 17 mins. (later i found out that the mountain i passed was "just" 2114 m. high) Pic n° 1 From the top of the mountain, n° 2-3-4-5 On the way to the top

The reason for many pictures on the way up is that i decided to take a lot of them. NOT to have a break! hehehe Fore sure, not becouse it was steep, just for the pictures. FOR SURE, just for the the nice view and I needed pictures :D hehehe

Pics n° 6-7 My way down, wow it was a very long way down.
The total distance that day was 225 km, i was in Milano at 1.20 am. Today i past one big mountain and one smaller, and the rest was very flat so it was very easy ride.

But WOW it was HOT, the minute i came down into the valley on the italian side it was 30°. Had to take a rest in Bellinzona over 1h. To wait for the heat to cool down, too hot for a weak norvegian :D.

For the first time in this journey i went to McDonalds and it was in Milano. Now I know that it's just 1h or 2 and i'm done."
