Propriano Bonifacio 66km, 865m
Brrr, it's cold!
February 26
The night was cool even in Corsica. The tent is as frozen as we do. Condensation has even turned into ice on the interior ceiling. Brrr. Well, yesterday we did not see a grocery by the end of the day which means that we have nothing for breakfast.
advertisements along the road indicate that the closest grocery store is that to 5 minutes on the road we take. Perfect until we see the kind of trick that involves 5 minutes. Yes, you guessed it, a terrible rise of 15% to the store! Nothing in the stomach, it is difficult. Needless to say we took a gargantuan breakfast with great coffee.
The road has already announced its gradients in the first kilometers in the direction of Sartene. Again, we must push our bikes. The slope is more than 20%. Aie Aie Aie.
And it continues like this all day. Just before lunch we take the turn of the great southern Corsica. The rock formations are really special here. They have sculpted by time and weather.
And then a descent beautiful seaside
Who must necessarily go back to take a final climb to Bonifacio. The weather was overcast and quite refreshing. Finally, Bonifacio.
We are going directly to the port to find the ferry schedules to Sardinia. The next ship is at 17:00 and the journey takes an hour. Perfect, we board and we'll find a hotel on the other side. Rating Bonifacio is a beautiful white.
Really beautiful.
Welcome in Sardinia and also in Italy, our 6th country. Yes, there are several hotels here, but they are all closed except one. This is fine but like everything else in Europe expensive. Tomorrow, our first day in Italy.
