Very tired legs ! For my part.. ;-) But took some quiet farmroads with pleanty of time and silence to take in the scenery and do some deep thinking :-)
Rumania is up next, and if all goes to plan we should run past the border tomorrow. To a contry that is perhaps as East European as it gets ! For good or for bad ?? I try to keep as unexpecting as possible ! :-)

But under the thin carpet of the willpower and determination lurks the knowledge that Poland allmost 'knocked me over'. Reading the map promises mountainpasses of 1800m, remoteness and very few roads but big Green expanses that make the map look allmost empty despite its a fairly big contry.

Whatever it is - it will be interesting !! And inspires a big smile allready as I think past my initial fear :-) This is the challenge we want.
