It was supposed one of the easier cycling days. A short one, all on tar with just a DSC_7687tougher climb at the end. However I was forced to use the car after my last night’s stomach fiasco. Still having higher temperature, totally shivering and pale like a ghost – one couldn’t see me standing in front of a white wall – I packed my bag and Luke brought me to the lunch stop, where we got some delicious, fresh coconut to drink, from a local family.

Cristiano carried me and Dan (who is also recovering from a stomach ‘bug’) to Valle de Angeles, our location for the next rest day.

It is a nice place in the mountains and parrots are entertaining us in the DSC_7739garden with their ‘Holas’ and ‘Hallos’ – unfortunately trapped in a mid sized aviary. It would have been much nicer if they we as free as those in San Juan del Sur or Granada.

At 8:30 I already had my laundry disposed for cleaning and went to sleep … a loooong loooong sleep. I just got up in the afternoon to have some soup and returned to ‘narcosis’ until the next morning.

A healthy sleep. I totally feel better today, but still need the rest day to gain more strength for the forthcoming cycling days.

  1. Your health doesn’t sound all that good. Well, hope you#ll get back into the saddle soon. But maybe try to take it extra easy the first day.
