Churches and graveyards are popular Sunday.
The Poles seem to take cemeteries seriously, almost like its a competition to maintain spotless tombstones covered in fresh flowers.

Combine harvesters are out in force!

River trail cycle path that doesn't go near the river
Thunderstorm
Hiding under tree in park with the local old drunk
At least this one is amiable, plenty of old blokes sat on benches just give me incredulous looks bordering on about to spit
Dropped my sunglasses though and had to go back, found them in a muddy puddle but better than losing them!

Camped in a recently harvested empty field. Tranquil

Tues 29th
Another 100km.
Spent a couple of hours in the morning at a "fairy tale" castle, the interior was a bit of a joke though, terrible portrait paintings of the lady of the house, and most of it is a somewhat run down looking hotel. Still, looks good from the outside with lots of turrets, one of which conceals the water tank.

Reached target camp area, a meadow in the middle of a forest. A few mozzies but the biggest trial is the heat... So hot, so hot... I saw one of those led signs saying 38 degrees C recently which isn't ideal cycling weather, but makes stopping for ice cream feel more justified.
