Mois : octobre 2015
Lithuanie
With the winter, the days gets very short. As I mostly sleep in the forest and fields, I don’t write the blog at night… And when I stop during the day, it take on the day time which it already too short… So, there is few text about this part of my trip.
Lettonie
October the 18th, I enter in Latvia, the sun is going down and I camp at a fire place in Ainaži. There is some hoarfrost on the fields at the morning.
I go south along the sandy coastline, crossing pine tree forests. I follow the baltic sea european cycle road, but there no amenagement for cyclists have been done and the road is not so good… There is a big road with quite a lot of trucks, or some pathes more close to the sea. But those passes are quite hazardous, and more designed for mountain biking. Following them, I get to walk my bike on a rocky beach, and to cross sandy forests where my bike stop in the sand…
I arrive in Riga the 13 of October, there I am hosted by a nice young family that I meet through WarmShowers. I spend one and a half day in the city, visiting and giving a hand to local bikers association !
I am on the roud agein and go to the west to goin back the cost in Júrkalne, then I continu – south, along the sandy coastline – in the direction of Lithuania. On the way I visit the city of Liepāja, and I spend some time on wonderful sandy beaches, with nobody with the cold weather.
En Estonie
Le 1er Octobre, je prend un Ferry d’Helsenki vers Tallinn, et j’entre en Estonie ! Je passe une journée complète à Tallinn où je visite la ville. C’est la première grosse ville médiévale que je traverce depuis l’Allemagne !
je longe ensuite la côte, directions les iles. Je passe deux jours sur Hiiumaa, dont je fais le tour, puis un rapide passage sur Saaremaa et je reviens sur le continent, et… je longe la côte. Je passe à Pärnu, puis je fille vers la Laittonie, toujours le long de la côte.
