Today I woke up at 4:10 and then said bye to mom and Laura. On the halfway to the central station I realised that I had forgotten my helmet which was one of the most important things for a bike tour. But with a little stress I made it and bougth a bike train ticket in the last second. Then (because it was so late) I got in the wrong part of the train which would have splitten split up soon. So I asked a friendly man if he could help carry my bags that I could take the bike and reach the other section of the train before it splitted. I reached it and finally could get a little bit of sleep back! 🙂
In Lindau the weather was wonderful and the moutains seemed like they’ve called me the whole time. The hardest part of the day began – 50 km uphill, often very hard parts, I did it! The weather, other people greeting me, chocolate & many more things made it a lot easier. I met an older woman who has been on „Walz“ and gave her some cheese bread. In the end of this 50 km it became easier and sometimes even downhill. At the highest spot of the day I reached a deep point of tiredness and I felt a little sick. So I decided to skip approximately 15-20 km of the day and take the train to have a break. It turned out to be the rigth decision and the last part along the river „Iller“ to the camping place was wonderful like the bikeride-sunny weather of the whole day. At the camping place I pitched up my tent, showered 🚿⛺ and went shopping in the supermarket „Aldi“ with the best view on the mountains of thr Allgäu. After dinner I called mom, Laura, dad and my aunt Eva which was very comforting. Afterwards I talked about an hour with another German from Hamburg (professional fire figther). That was the perfect end of the day and now I’m ready for bed ✨
