Day 34: Monfalcone, Italy




Stats... 132.72km in 6hrs 48mins... highest mileage so far! We left at 8am and found a quieter road which ran by a nice canal. We stopped after 40km at a supermarket for lunch and mossie candles! We then stopped 40km later at a deserted petrol station for a fuel stop and to charge batteries in the loo. After 20km we had a quick leg ache stop then 30km later we found a campsite just in time before a humungous storm arrived! We set up the tent in record time and jumped in to let it pass. It never did! There was so much water our tent started to float so Kris jumped to our rescue and hand dug a trench around the tent whilst I showered! We spent the rest of the night not wanting to leave the tent and reading up on Slovenia and our next leg of the journey.
