Even though we drove out the scenic and touristy way, we did
not see any tourists maybe too late in the season.
The
Firs and birch tree forest looked wonderful with the contrasting colors,
autumn is definitely upon us. All through the forest drive was a
bicycle path and a walking path no bikes allowed on road.
Finally
saw the “rock” that has been on all the promotional posters we
saw yesterday.
There
was a boom gate to enter this road and one to exit but we were not
stopped the guy just lifted the boom for us so not sure what that was
all about. A lovely little drive.
Every small town seems to have a monument
A
swampy area.
Harvest
harvest harvest the crop they are harvesting only looks to be 2
feet high. There are a lot of small lakes dotted around
and many that are not shown on our map.
These
Swans were swimming beside the road.
John
had picked a forested area for our camp and when we arrived there was
a big sign, google translate said “no entry to Forrest
for the purpose of lighting bonfires” All good then.
A
small track into the forest found us a nice little camp. An early one
so we could wash clothes….
Hung
in a cold still forest but hopefully they’ll get rid of their drips
over night.
The bark from the trees felt a little bit like plastic so different to our paper barks.
