Another day of tenting after the run. This time on a burnt field behind a small strawhut w. its family.
They live by cutting stone - piling up rubble (roadfill ?) from grinding down larger pices of rock. Running around the world is easy compared !

But certainly took a long time setteling in the hot tent. Nightfall came w. a full moon - and a rooster that regularly made noice at the tents from 2am. and onwards.. I thourght they only were inclined to make a wake-up' noice at sunrise; but this one was far more generous ;-)
